Mumbai’s two-day CNG chaos ends as supply finally returns to pumps
The Free Press Journal - Mumbai
|November 19, 2025
Mumbaikars finally got some relief on Tuesday evening as the CNG supply was restored at pumps across the city.
The disruption, which lasted for more than two days, had caused widespread inconvenience to commuters, with long queues at pumps and many autos and taxis off the roads.
The CNG crisis deepened on Tuesday morning, with long queues snaking out of fuel stations across the city as supply disruptions continued to plague motorists.
As the CNG supply remained disrupted in the morning in the most part of city, around 70% of CNG vehicles were off the roads. Many people struggled to reach their destinations on Tuesday morning, with some opting for bike-sharing or carpooling. Bike taxi operators capitalised on the situation and charged exorbitant fares.
