Special Train Ferries Stranded Migrants From TS To Jharkhand

Railways ran a special train to ferry 1,200 stranded migrants from Lingampally in Telangana to Hatia in Jharkhand, a first since lockdown began.

“The 24 coach train started at 4.50 am today (Friday),” RPF DG Arun Kumar told PTI.

It’s the only train to be deployed so far, he added.

Incidentally Friday is also the international Labour Day.
