MUMBAI: Public transport that largely depends on CNG was badly hit during the Friday morning peak hours due to 'tripping' of gas stations that led to CNG retail pumps being temporarily shut at many places. Hailing autorickshaws and taxis became a bigger battle than on other days.
"It was frustrating waiting for an autorickshaw from 10am to 10.25am at Dahanukarwadi. I had to go for urgent work and I realised something was wrong with the auto service. Finally a bus pulled up and I ran for it," said a Kandivli resident.
