With several migrant workers congregating on the streets demanding safe return to their States, Lok Sabha member from Bengal Mahua Moitra made an appeal to the people of Bengal and other States working in Kerala not to listen to anyone who are trying to fish in troubled waters. She asked them to stay in Kerala.
In a voice message recorded in Bengali, Ms. Moitra said that the country was going through the most difficult period of this and last century.
Optimistic
“We are not responsible for this situation and we have to overcome the situation,” she said. Going back home was difficult now, she added.
Ms. Moitra said that she had confidence in the Chief Minister of Kerala, who had assured that everyone would be taken care of in Kerala and would be given food and shelter.
