MMRDA took the decision after the company “failed to perform and fulfill contractual obligations” and “failed to maintain the quality of Monorail services”. MMRDA Commissioner R A Rajeev said that the MMRDA had to take this unfortunate decision to terminate the contract that was entered into in 2008 when the first 9-km-long phase of the Monorail from Chembur to Wadala was opened for public.”

“The MMRDA gave LTSE a long rope to enable it to recover. However, the LTSE failed to supply the rolling stock trains (RST) and also operate and maintain the system on the entire corridor. Further, it failed to rectify defects as per the contractual clauses,” he added.

“This also resulted in inordinate delay in starting Monorail phase 2 from Wadala to S G Chowk. The LTSE failed to maintain the quality of Monorail services,” said Rajeev.

“they will encash the bank guarantee of Rs 200 crore given by LTSE since the contractor failed to respond to legal notices issued by MMRDA” Said Officials

MMRDA said in a statement that for the operation and maintenance of the Monorail, an external agency will be hired, but for now, MMRDA staff will look after the work. The Monorail service, the statement added, will run uninterrupted.
