- mayama 4y agoIn India's case it was logistics issue. Initial decision was to keep migrant workers in place and provide them with daily necessities free. Some state govts didn't play ball and cut off electricity and rations. After that it took some time for central and various state govts to run special trains to the people. And it's not thousands of kms, 10s of kms.

- sfgd 4y agoCurious how you saw them walk. Are you rephrasing what you saw mentioned in news?
- michaelt 4y agoWalking thousands of kms would indeed take a very long time! But someone within 10km of home is scarcely a 'migrant worker' - you could start in south Mumbai, walk 30km north, and still be in Mumbai :)
