P Chidambaram – Former Union Finance Minister:

• PM-CARES has allocated Rs 1000 crore for migrant workers.
• Please don’t make the common mistake.
• The money will not be given to the migrant workers but to the State governments to meet the expenses of travel, accommodation, medicine and food for the migrant workers.
• But nothing will go to the hands of the migrant workers.
• Let’s take a migrant worker who has crossed all hurdles and returned to his village.
• There are no jobs in the village. He has no work and no income.
• How will he survive and support his family?
