Chembur in the News
Amar Mahal Pipeline Cross-Connection Delay Extends Water Supply Woes
The BMC’s critical cross-connection work on the 2500 mm Amar Mahal pipeline, which was scheduled to connect to underground tunnels 1 and 2, has been delayed by several hours, resulting in a prolonged water supply disruption. As a part of the affected M-West administrative ward, Chembur residents are facing continued shortages, as the essential operation carried out near Chedda Nagar Junction, Ghatkopar East, has caused a shutdown that was initially scheduled to last from Monday, December 1, to Tuesday, December 2, 2025.
Inspira Realty Records Strong Sales in Chembur, Sells 95% of Local Project Inventory
Inspira Realty has achieved a significant milestone in Mumbai's real estate market, with a notable performance in Chembur where it has successfully sold 95% of the inventory in its local project (along with its project in Vile Parle). This success comes as the developer, in joint venture with JPV Realtors, announced the complete pre-possession sell-out of their two residential developments, 'Pratap Adinath' in Borivali West and 'Pratap Cress' in Malad West, which together comprised approximately 300,000 sq. ft. and a mix of 1, 2, and 3 BHK homes priced between ₹1.40 crore and ₹3.56 crore.
Retired Professor Defrauded of ₹76.8 Lakh in 'Digital Arrest' Cyber Scam
A retired Chembur professor was cheated out of ₹76.8 lakh in a sophisticated "fake digital arrest" cyber fraud, where criminals impersonated high-ranking officials from law enforcement and government agencies. The victim was made to believe her bank accounts were linked to illegal activities and was coerced into transferring her life savings to various accounts over several days, while being subjected to intimidating video calls and forced to remain confined to her home during the 'digital interrogation.'
Metro Line 2B Phase 1 Set for Launch, Directly Benefiting Chembur Residents
The first phase of the Mumbai Metro Line 2B, connecting Mandale to Chembur's Diamond Garden, is complete and ready for its likely inauguration on December 4th, pending the final safety certificate. This initial 5.3-km elevated stretch will offer the eastern suburbs, including Chembur, its first metro service, significantly cutting travel time. The full 23.6-km Line 2B, which will eventually include the Chembur and Diamond Garden stations and provide an interchange with the Monorail at Chembur, is slated to run from DN Nagar to Mandale.
Chembur Registers Severe Air Quality as Mumbai Starts December with Haze
Despite a sunny start to December, the Air Quality Index (AQI) in Mumbai remains "unhealthy" at 277, with alarming localized readings: Chembur has been identified as a key hotspot, recording a 'Severe' air quality level of 335, alongside areas like Wadala and BKC. The persistent haze across the city indicates widespread pollutant accumulation, posing significant health risks, especially in industrially impacted areas like Chembur and Wadala.
Rahul Shewale Launches 'Mission Mangroves' Campaign in Chembur to Restore Coastal Green Cover
Former MP Rahul Shewale kicked off the "Mission Mangroves" initiative, aimed at reviving Mumbai's vital coastal green cover, with the campaign launching in Chembur's Chedda Nagar. The drive, undertaken in collaboration with the state Forest Department, began with the plantation of mangroves over a two-and-a-half–acre stretch in the locality. The effort seeks to strengthen long-term conservation efforts for Mumbai's mangroves and will be expanded with active participation from students, social organisations, and Chembur's local residents.
MMRDA Begins Work on Elevated Eastern Freeway Extension from Chembur's Chheda Nagar
The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) has commenced work on the ₹2,682 crore Elevated Eastern Freeway Extension, a 13.9 km, six-lane corridor that will start near Chembur's Chheda Nagar and run to Anand Nagar in Thane. This critical infrastructure project is designed to provide a signal-free, high-speed connection between South Mumbai (via the existing Eastern Freeway) and Thane, dramatically reducing the travel time to an estimated 20-25 minutes from the current high-traffic surface road time. The extension, which begins near the current freeway's end point, will significantly benefit Chembur residents and commuters by linking to key junctions like Ramabai Nagar, Vikhroli, Kanjurmarg, JVLR, Airoli, and Mulund.
