The Trinamool Congress responded Saturday at the cost of the Union’s residence minister, Amit Shah, that the West Bengal authorities led by Mamata Banerjee are not facilitating the motion of the stranded migrant employees.
Amit Shah wrote to West Bengal chief ministers Mamata Banerjee, saying that his authorities are doing “injustice” to migrant employees by not allowing Shramik’s private trains to reach the state.
“Union Interior Minister Amit Shah speaks after weeks of silence only to deceive people with lies,” Abhishek Banerjee of the TMC was quoted as saying by the PTI information company.
“The Center is lying … West Bengal runs 711 migrant camps in the state. We are taking good care of them,” said Abhishek Banerjee, who may also be the prime minister’s nephew.
Amit Shah had identified in his letter that the Center was not receiving “expected support” from state authorities to serve stranded migrant employees from West Bengal.
“The West Bengal government does not allow trains with migrants to reach the state. This is an injustice to the migrant workers of the World Bank. This will create more difficulties for them, ”Amit Shah had said in his letter to Mamata Banerjee.
The migrant worker issue is the latest critical point between the Center and West Bengal authorities amid a dispute over the state’s efforts to control the coronavirus disease (Covid-19).
The Center and the state have exchanged accusations about the criteria for reporting deaths from an infection, and while Bengal says the Center is trying to politicize a public welfare disaster, Union officials maintain that state officials are ignoring the repeated warnings to intensify Combat in opposition to disease.
Federal officials have stated that the area has not conducted satisfactory examinations and that there was mismanagement in finding out and containing hot spots.
Union residence secretary Ajay Bhalla also criticized state authorities for a really low price of tests and an excessive mortality price, 13.2%, the best for any state.
The Center also accused state authorities of not allowing the cross-border movement of product vans to Bangladesh.
There are 1,678 cases of Covid-19 and 160 deaths in West Bengal as of Saturday morning.
