Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal Once Again Assures All Possible Help To Migrant Workers

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has said that his   government has ordered shifting of the people living in the open at the Yamuna Ghat here during the lockdown as arrangements have been made to provide them food and shelter. This was yet another step of assurance by Kejriwal government to  take care of the migrant workers hit hard by lockdown.

The move follows media reports about the plight of migrant workers who took shelter under a flyover on the banks of the Yamuna in the wake of the countrywide lockdown amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Taking to Twitter, the chief minister thanked the media for pointing out the matter and said there will be no shortage of accommodation and food for those gathered at Yamuna Ghat.

In another tweet, Kejriwal said the government has been providing food to 10 lakh people every day and has given free-ration to 75 lakh beneficiaries.
