A resident ginger cat at Mumbai Metro is given an official job title after months of appearing to patrol the station area. NDTV reports that commuters have repeatedly spotted the cat near the Gundavali station entrance, where it is photographed while sitting by the entrance.

According to the outlets, the decision recognizes the cat’s long-standing presence and what commuters describe as routine “patrolling” around the metro facility. India Today frames the story around the cat’s months of activity before it receives the title, while NDTV focuses on the specific designation and the identification of a commuter who shared images.

The reporting does not provide details on any formal employment process beyond the naming. It also does not indicate whether the cat’s “role” affects metro operations, but it highlights how commuters and the metro community treat the animal as a familiar part of the station environment.
