The train, which runs on an elevated track, was stuck for at least one hour, they said.

The train suffered “a minor power supply issue”, Mumbai Monorail said in a release.

Three snorkel vehicles of the Mumbai fire brigade have been deployed at the spot, and the passengers will be rescued by cutting the window glass, officials said.

Mumbai has been battered by rains for the last two days, throwing normal life in the metropolis out of gear.
