Mumbai Rains: Why isn't the government announcing official public holiday?

Incessant rainfall in the metropolis has brought various services to a halt.  The city's 'Dabbawallahs' or lunch box carriers have suspended their services. Schools in Thane and Palghar district are closed today. Will take a call on shutting schools, says Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis.

One user on Twitter has informed that it is taking one hour  to reach from Bandra to CST because of the flooded tracks at Wadala. Suburban services of the Western Railway were stopped, a senior railway official said in the morning. The official said that services between Churchgate and Borivili were, however, normal. "Since last night, over 200 mm rainfall has been recorded which led to water logging on railway tracks and considering the passengers' safety, train services have been stopped till the water level on the track recedes," he said. He said that de-watering efforts are being made by the water pumping machines to flush the water.

The question in all this is that why isn't an official public holiday being announced?
