Heavy rains triggered a landslide near Tunnel 2 on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway Missing Link. This incident forced a complete shutdown of the stretch, disrupting traffic for over twelve hours. Authorities diverted vehicles, causing significant delays and raising safety concerns about the new infrastructure. Opposition leaders criticized the project's preparedness, calling it a failure during its first monsoon. The Mumbai-bound carriageway later reopened after safety checks and debris clearance.
