sandeep Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 This is unacceptable. Government should do something about this. Maybe a special bus or train - at least from major city to city. Think about being poor, maybe having kids, and facing the prospect of walking hundreds of kilometers to reach home/safety. We cheer when the govt sends planes to Wuhan and Iran to get our people back. These are our people too. Cannot be left to die or fend on their own.

LordPrabhzy Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 You do realise that would mean ferrying thousands of people back to villages when they could be potentially infected? for the government to provide healthcare and supplies is easier in big cities than in rural parts of India that’s why Modi told people to stay put where they are and not travel back home. Why are labourers still defying clear orders? They should have support provided where they stay in terms of guaranteed food and supplies if they have lost their jobs which would stop the need for them to travel back.

Norman Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 I have a friend from a humble background who works on movie sets. He said he had to walk three hours straight to get home from the location due to the lack of public transport. Poor guy walked 35 Kms in 3 hours.

No migrant workers are not that many, but they should have been better advised to stay put. Instead guys like Kejriwal played politics by deliberately plying DTC buses and dropped off people at UP’s doorsteps. Libtards are going around showcasing their hardships to west, when in fact, some of work done by government is not shown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And are only now responding to, after negative media coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
