The Central Railway's grand promise of ending the mega block an hour earlier for Ganpati on Sunday turned out to be just words as services remained suspended till the usual time of 4.10 pm.

According to the initial announcement, the block on the Mulund-Matunga main line and CSMT-bound line was supposed to be from 11.10 am to 4.10 pm and between Vashi and Panvel from 11.30 am to 4.30 pm. However, even after the railways' announcement of cutting down the block time by an hour, the situation on the ground remained the same.
