After almost 40 days of lockdown, the first train carrying about 1,000 migrant labourers set off from Lingampally in Telangana for Hatia in Jharkhand at 5 am on Friday. This move came two days after the Centre gave the green signal to migrant workers, students, and tourists stranded in different parts of the country due to the coronavirus lockdown. The special train took off at the request of the southern state’s government.
