West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Monday instructed the State administration to start the process to bring back migrant workers from other States.
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Monday instructed the State administration to start the process to bring back migrant workers from other States. "We have 22 lakh migrant workers. Efforts should be made to bring them home," the Chief Minister said during an administrative meeting in Bolpur.
"We will set up camps to accommodate them. Even children are being tortured," she said. "My brothers and sisters who are facing trouble in other states bring them back and utilise their skills. During Covid, we had helped the migrant workers."
After the administrative meeting, the Chief Minister led a Trinamool Congress rally to protest against BJP's "linguistic terrorism". Addressing a public meeting, Mamata Banerjee accused the Narendra Modi Government and the Election Commission of attempting to implement "NRC through the backdoor."
