Thousands of migrant passengers are struggling at Surat's Udhna station, trying to get home for Diwali and Chhath. Some have been standing in lines for eight hours, while others are jostling to get a seat on a train. Passengers allege that 500 to 600 people are being crammed into general coaches with a capacity of 120. The Railways claims to be operating and arranging for 10 trains.
