With many people abroad anxious to know the fate of their near and dear ones in terror-hit Mumbai, the Ministry of External Affairs today set up a control room to reply to such queries.
The control room can be reached on numbers 91-11-23015300, 91-11-23012113 and 91-11-23013537. The fax number is 91-11-23018158.
As last night’s terror incidents spread a sense of unease in the metropolis, schools and colleges were ordered closed. The Bombay Stock Exchange did not function today.
Suburban trains and city buses operated normally but without usual rush. Except for cancellation of three international flights, domestic air services to Mumbai were maintained.
