Hundreds of migrant laborers gathered near Bandra station after hearing ‘false news’ that the government was running trains to transport them back to their home states. The crowd, which had gathered, led to fears of the spread of the COVID-19 epidemic, especially as Bandra east is one of the most affected zones. The crowd was finally dispersed after the police began a lathi-charge.

Despite these measures, they are a bit rattled. I would like to appeal to them that you are in our State and we will take care of you. Please do not panic.

The day the lockdown will be lifted, not just me, but the Central government will make arrangements for you to go back home.
This is the time to confront the situation, in which we Hindustani never fall short.
