On September 20, 2026, at around 5:03am, a black BMW motor car bearing registration number DD 01 C 6302 was travelling from Marine Drive towards Haji Ali.

BMC on Saturday completed repairs to the leakage in its 3,000-mm-diameter Mumbai-III water main near Teen Hath Naka in Thane, with water supply to Mumbai city and the eastern suburbs expected to be restored in phases from 9pm.
The repair work was completed at 5pm after civic engineers and staff worked through the day to address the leak in the major water pipeline.
The leakage was first detected on Thursday night. BMC officials initially plugged the hole using a wooden stopper to contain the leak. The area around the damaged section was subsequently excavated, and accumulated water was pumped out to expose and dry the affected portion.
The civic body had planned to permanently repair the damaged section by installing a mild steel (MS) patch plate and welding it in place. However, the pipeline developed another leak on Saturday, and the high water pressure hampered repair operations, affecting water supply to Mumbai city and the eastern suburbs.
BMC coordinated with the Pise Pumping Station and Panjarapur Water Treatment Plant to control the water flow and safely carry out repairs to the pressurised pipeline.
According to the civic body, once the pipeline is recharged and pressurised, water supply will be restored in a phased manner from 9pm.
#WATCH | Mumbai: On the landslide, Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) Commissioner Ashwini Bhide says, "The rescue operation is already underway. These are government lands where such habitations have come up, and we have been constantly warning them that it is not a safe site and that they should leave. However, certain circumstances may have allowed them to continue staying there. We are taking all necessary measures for the rescue operation."
