The station was one of the sites attacked last week by militants.

Police said a bomb squad was at the station but nothing had yet been found.

Maharashtra state chief minister Vilasrao Deshmukh was due to visit the station on Wednesday evening, NDTV reported.

CNN/IBN said the device could have been planted on Nov 26, the day that the attacks on Mumbai started.
