MUMBAI : Thousands of migrant labourers gathered at a Mumbai station in the suburban area of Bandra hoping that they could return to their hometowns in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar as today was the last day of lockdown.
However considering that the lockdown has been extended the labourers had to be dispersed and sent back to the labour camps set up for their stay.
Prime Minister, Narendra Modi on Tuesday extended the lockdown till 3 May to contain the spread of Covid-19 outbreak. "Migrant workers who gathered near Bandra station in Mumbai may have thought PM Modi had ordered opening of state borders," said Anil Deshmukh, home minister of Maharashtra Government.
