HYDERABAD: There are 3am friends and there can also be some who can turn up at any part of the night to show up to be of some help, even if he is not a friend.
Rajendar Agarwal, a businessman of the city did a good samaritan act helping two Muslim pregnant women get hotel accommodation for their quarantine after they returned from Dubai.

Agarwal got to read a tweet by social worker Amjed Ullah Khan that 10 passengers who arrived from Dubai were taken to a hotel accommodation on their arrival from the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (RIA) but had no money to pay the hotel.
Among the passengers were women, including some pregnant women. Rushing to the place at Gachibowli at 4am, Rajendar paid the amount for the two pregnant women and saw to it that they were allotted rooms.
"The hotel allowed them to use their common facilities, served dinner, and tea. Then after my payment, they shifted them to a room in front of me," Agarwal said.
Amjed Ullah Khan said Rajendar had reached the hotel accommodation at 4am on Saturday after seeing his tweet and paid Rs 22,500 for allotting rooms for the Muslim pregnant women. "This is real Ganga Jamuni Tehzeeb of Telangana," he said thanking Agarwal.
Amjed Ullah Khan said many passengers had arrived on Friday from Dubai and among them, 10 had been taken to a hotel accommodation at Gachibowli. Two persons who were out of job since the last four months and affected due to lockdown are unable to pay their Rs 15,000 being charged by the Telangana Govt for Quarantine, he said.
"They are not being allowed a room since yesterday night and made to wait at the lobby. Someone kindly reach them as they need Rs 30,000 for two single rooms," Amjed Ullah Khan tweeted. He also mentioned that among the 10 women passengers were some pregnant women unable to pay for their accommodation. Rajendar who read this rushed to the hotel accommodation and paid the money so that the women could be accommodated in rooms.
