Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday, 2 June said that migrant workers across states lost patience as they started walking to their hometowns and that a few unwanted incidents did take place during the ongoing crisis.
In an interview to CNN-News18, Shah said that the government did provide transport for the ones who wished to return to their states.
“Some people lost patience and started walking on the roads. Even then we started buses and transported them to railway stations from where they were safely taken to their villages,” Shah said.
“It is true that some incidents happened that should not have. For 5-6 days it happened. After which we provided facilities and people started understanding it,” he said.
