Open a 3 days window for the transportation of migrant labors and workers.

The Issue

As we all know due to the pandemic of Covid-19, each and every class of the country is suffering. Though it's a great decision to prevent the spread of virus and somewhere middle-class, upper middle-class have got accustomed with it because we have shelter and food. But living in a privileged class in such a tensed situation, I feel pity on myself that I can't do anything for those who are roads, barefoot, empty stomach, bruised.

I am talking about the labours, the daily wage workers who work in Tier 1, Tier 2 cities of the country and who are not finding any medium of transport for their village. They are walking on roads to achieve a journey of more than 200km to 1500km. They don't have any adequate facility of food neither they have shelter. They have small children with them who are suffering badly because of lack of our governance. Though it is not the time for complaints but I am feeling very bad because of such situation. My spine gets chilled when I put myself in their situation.

Now I urge the authorities of our country like Central Government and State/U.T. governments; they are getting donations and helping hands for each and every corner of the country; they should open a three day window for transportation of these people after diagnosis or testing, so that they can reach safely to their home, otherwise it could turn out into a big chaos, much bigger then Covid-19.
