After ensuring the return of stranded students of UP from Kota in Rajasthan, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath directed officials to prepare a roadmap to bring back migrant workers of the state who were stranded in other states and had completed 14-day quarantine.
“Those UP labourers who have completed 14-day quarantine in other states will be brought back in a phased manner and officers should prepare an action plan for it,” Yogi said while addressing a review meeting at his official residence in Lucknow on Friday.
The chief minister said that a list would be furnished with all details of labourers followed by screening and testing by states concerned to send them to UP border from where they would be sent to their respective districts by bus.
“The nodal officers for different states should prepare a list of people who want to return to UP and start making arrangements for their return. Shelter homes should be sanitised and community kitchens set up their for quarantined labourers of other states. Nodal officers should contact respective states and migrant workers who want to return,” the chief minister told officials .
Yogi said that adequate number of shelter homes and centres should be readied for 14-day quarantine of migrants. “After quarantine, they would be sent to their homes with a ration kit and Rs 1,000 as sustenance allowance,” he said.
Last week, 10,500 UP students taking up coaching in Kota (Rajasthan) were brought back to the state on the initiative of the chief minister and for this around 300 buses were put into service. Later, the students were asked to quarantine themselves in their homes for the next 14 days.
