Buses Not Feasible For Moving Migrants, States Appeal To Centre: Sources | Read

The home ministry's order to send migrant labourers home by bus is not feasible, several states, especially those from the south, have said. Source said the states have asked the ministry to allow the use of trains, contending that the number of people, distance and logistics of travel rules out buses. The Centre has said it would look into the matter, which came up today at a virtual meeting between the Union Cabinet Secretary and the state representatives.
