The fire in the huts located inside the Navrang Compound on the 60-foot road broke out at 12.30 pm
At least four fire engines and other firefighting vehicles reached the spot and launched the firefighting operation, a civic official said
As the fire is very close to the railway tracks, local train services between Bandra and Mahim on the Harbour line have been temporarily suspended, railway officials said
"The electric supply to overhead equipment has been disconnected as a safety measure due to the fire incident in the shanties adjacent to Up Harbour line on the east side between Mahim and Bandra at around 12:15 pm", a Western Railway spokesperson said
