For the second day in a row on Tuesday, there were long lines of autorickshaws, kaali peeli (black-yellow) cabs, and other vehicles at CNG stations due to the disruption in the supply of compressed natural gas (CNG) in Mumbai, Maharashtra, and the surrounding districts.
According to news agency PTI, the city's CNG problem caused large lines of cars to form early in the morning. Several drivers claimed that the wait time for recharging their cars had increased from the typical 15 to 30 minutes to three to four hours. Auto and taxi fares in the city are said to have increased as a result of the Mumbai CNG problem.
This is what caused Mumbai's CNG crisis and what came next

• Sunday marked the start of the CNG supply disruption in Mumbai and the neighboring areas. Mahanagar Gas Limited claims that after third parties damaged GAIL's primary pipeline within Rashtriya Chemicals and Fertilizers (RCF), the gas delivery issue started on Sunday. According to the PTI report, this caused a disruption in the gas flow to MGL's City Gate Station in Wadala, a key location that supplies CNG to the city.
• 225 of the 389 CNG pumps in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region were functioning on Monday, according to MGL, and the supply should be entirely restored by Tuesday midday.
• MGL stated on Monday that "rectification work is in progress and the restoration of gas supply is expected by November 18 noon." It further stated that homeowners' piped natural gas supply was unaffected.
• In the meantime, there were rumors that Mumbai's car and taxi fares skyrocketed as a result of the disruption in the CNG supply. "CNG pipeline damage in Mumbai has created a big issue," a user on X (previously Twitter) stated. For journeys where the meter only shows ₹89 (MIDC to Andheri), auto drivers charge between ₹150 and ₹200. He also called on the authorities to intervene. Another local informed HT.com that cars are charging up to ₹500 merely to get to a nearby metro station. The crisis apparently led some people to choose work-from-home (WFH).
  In the meanwhile, MGL recommended that businesses and sectors that rely on gas supplies temporarily convert to alternative fuels.
