West Bengal Chief Minister
Mamata Banerjee announced a series of relaxations from June 1 on Friday while
claiming that the number of coronavirus cases is increasing in the state due to
the massive influx of migrant workers.
She announced that
religious places can open up from June 1 and allowed full attendance at public
and private offices.
Banerjee, who has been
criticising the railways for the past few days for ferrying a large number of
migrant workers to the state without consulting her government, claimed that it
is being done without following the norms of social distancing.
"Is the railways
running Corona Express trains, instead of Shramik Special trains?" she
asked and wondered why more trains are not being run for the migrant workers
returning from other states. -- PTI
