Away from her child, migrant worker bursts into tears

As uncertainty looms over their work due to coronavirus lockdown and no signs of hope in the near future, migrant labourers decided to head back to their native places on foot.

However, they were stopped by police at Delhi-UP Border.

While talking to media persons, a migrant worker burst into tears.

"We will walk and go home on foot, please don't stop us.

If you can't provide a transport, let us walk home.

My child is in Jhansi, he is crying continuously, I want to go back to him," said a migrant worker.

"We will try to get them vehicles to reach their native places," said a police official.

Despite Shramik special train services, many migrants remain stranded in different states.
