The decision is part of the slew of measures taken by various state agencies, including the Mumbai Police, over the years after the 10 Lashkar-e-Toiba terrorists who carried out the 26/11 attacks in Mumbai entered the city through the sea using inflatable speedboats.
In the past 10 days since the Mumbai-Navi Mumbai water taxi began services, the speed boat service has been on just three trips between the two locations, while the catamaran has had no trips at all, reports from Indian Express stated.
