Mumbai: Seven near-simultaneous blasts rocked Mumbai on Tuesday evening killing at least 174 and injuring hundreds of others.

India’s commercial capital was put on high alert and all local trains – also called the lifelines of the city – were immediately suspended.

So where did most Mumbaikars stranded at stations spend their night?

When the city came to a near-standstill, those stranded did not spend their night at different stations, but managed to find shelter in the homes and hearts of their fellow citizens.

Students at the International Students Hostel in the Churchgate area gave shelter to many stranded commuters, including the family of one-and-a-half-year old Megha.
