Thousands of migrants once again gathered at Mumbai's Bandra railway station on Tuesday, hoping to board a Shramik Express Special train to Bihar, leading to chaos in the area.

The crowd gathered at the Bandra Terminus to catch a migrant special train going to Bihar's Purnia.

Scores of migrants, apart from those who had been authorised to travel in the train flooded the station. Videos from the scene show a sea of people at the Bandra terminus. In a video clip of Tuesday's incident that went viral on social media, a large number of migrants were seen carrying their luggage and running towards the gate of the Bandra Terminus.

The Western Railway and Mumbai Police had a harrowing time as hundreds of anxious migrants crowded outside the Bandra Terminus to catch a train home.
