A Mumbai Monorail train coach partially derailed and tilted Wednesday morning outside of its Wadala car depot, damaging its undercarriage during a test run. The incident, which occurred with no passengers on board, prompted an immediate—and conflicting—response from authorities.

While eyewitness accounts suggested a severe mishap, the MMRDA and its operating subsidiary, Maha Mumbai Metro Operation Corporation Limited (MMMOCL), have sought to downplay the event, initially describing it as a "mock drill" meant to test emergency preparedness.
