Thirteen Trekkers Rescued After Losing Way Near Prabalgad in Navi Mumbai
Thirteen employees of a private firm in Thane were rescued after losing their way during a trek from Irshalgad to Prabalmachi near Prabalgad in Navi Mumbai. The group got stranded in dense forest and rugged terrain as darkness fell, with poor mobile connectivity delaying their distress call to the 112 emergency helpline. A coordinated four-hour rescue operation led by Panvel Taluka Police, local guides, and volunteers safely brought all trekkers down without injuries. Authorities advised proper preparation and guidance for treks, especially during monsoon.
