As heavy downpour continues in Mumbai for over four days, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation requested the Navy to assist in rescue operations in Kurla. Teams from the INS Tanaji and Material Organisation were immediately activated once the request was sent.

Due to extreme waterlogging, the INS Tanaji team was unable to move their own vehicles to the site. The team moved on foot and carried the safety gear to rescue elderly women and children to safer areas. 1000 people were moved to safety with the help of the NDRF, fire brigade, and naval teams.
