People who walk.

The daily wage workers, hundreds of kms away from home, here coz of chain migration, coz the institutions are so corrupt in his home state, that there're no jobs & only crippling debt. They don't even know, if a govt can even help.

"Really?"

They walk home
They have always known govt as an entity who can at best save them from getting massacred from an opposing caste. And they are grateful, and pay back with their vote every 5 yrs.

"A govt can give economic assistance?" They ask. Coz to even get your pension, you pay a bribe.
They don't know. They have no entitlement. So when they are left with no job. No money. They don't protest in-front of the parliament, or block roads.

They just walk.
And when a TRP hungry journalist, holds them by their shoulders, to extract the juice of emotion, of exasperation, to sell more ads, these workers sometimes let go of their tears. They want to just go home, where they will at least get a meal.

Hence they walk.
Dear @HMOIndia @MoHFW_INDIA, Can we at least run a special train to take these guys home. Screen them thoroughly and let them go. Them walking home is detrimental to every interest.
