The newly inaugurated Worli underground metro station of Aqua line 3 in Mumbai was flooded after heavy overnight rainfall, as the Monsoon arrived early in the financial capital. The city has been experiencing heavy rainfall since the previous night, resulting in waterlogging and traffic congestion in several parts of the city.

Several videos of the Worli underground metro station have surfaced on social media, showing that incessant rain has submerged the platform, which resulted in the suspension of connectivity on this line. In the video, it is also seen that the platform has been completely flooded with muddy water, and passengers are wading through the flooded water.
