The Central Railway has cancelled 30 long-distance and intercity train services until July 17 after multiple landslides damaged the Mumbai-Pune rail corridor in the Bhor Ghat section, severely disrupting operations. Officials said torrential rainfall on July 6 triggered several landslides between Karjat and Lonavala stations, mainly near Thakurwadi and Monkey Hill, damaging all three railway lines. Although restoration work is being carried out on a war footing, difficult terrain, continuous rain and hazardous working conditions have delayed the full resumption of services.
