UP govt claims Congress sent autorickshaw, two-wheeler numbers in list of buses for migrant workers
This comes after a letter war broke out between the UP government and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra over buses to take migrant workers home. The Uttar Pradesh government has written a letter to the Congress leader, asking for 500 buses each to be sent to Noida and Ghaziabad that border Delhi.
Earlier, the Uttar Pradesh government agreed to Priyanka Gandhi's offer to provide 1,000 buses to take migrant workers home.
Priyanka Gandhi appealed to the CM through Twitter after a string of accidents involving migrant workers in the state, including one on Saturday in Auraiya district, where 26 workers died in a truck accident while going to their home state.
