After a revamp of nearly 1.5 years, the historic Shivaji Park Gymkhana (SPG) reopened on Monday with a fresh new look. The inauguration was attended by cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar and Maharashtra Navnirman Sena chief Raj Thackeray at the iconic Shivaji Park in Dadar.

The upgraded facilities include a refurbished gymnasium, redesigned terraces overlooking the maidan, modernised tennis courts and improved amenities for women players. SPG President Parveen Amre emphasised the balance between retaining the club’s historic charm and offering modern facilities, with a strong focus on gender parity in sports. With approximately 3,000 member families, the Gymkhana now looks forward to a new chapter in its legacy that dates back to 1909.

Unlike most idols, Andhericha Raja’s visarjan occurs later, making it one of the last Ganesh immersions in Mumbai.

A Mumbai Monorail train near Mysore Colony station developed a minor power supply issue and came to a halt between stations, leaving passengers stranded, officials said. Operations and maintenance teams, along with the fire brigade, rushed to the site to rescue commuters.

Sources indicated the train may have overshot the platform due to excess weight after delays caused overcrowding. Another train sent to tow it also got stuck.

Rescue efforts were underway with BMC medical teams on site, while services between Wadala and Chembur continued on a single line. Further details were awaited.
CM Devendra Fadnavis assured passengers’ safety, urged calm, and ordered an inquiry.
