Lakhs of workers are trying to get back to their homes walking from various parts of the country and there are not enough arrangements made for them. We wish to operate 500 buses each from Ghazipur and Noida borders, she wrote in the letter. The Congress leader had also posted a video featuring buses queued up in a row. "Our buses are standing at the border. Thousands of migrants and labourers are walking in the heat. Please give permission CM Yogi Adityanath ji, let us help our brothers and sisters," She tweeted. Respected Chief Minister, I am requesting you, this is not the time for politics. Our buses are standing on the border. Thousands of labourers and migrants, without eating anything, are walking towards their homes. Let us help them, give permission to our buses, Priyanka said in another tweet.

In a series of tweets, Priyanka Gandhi thanked the Yogi government for accepting her proposal to deploy buses for migrants. Thank you for allowing us to run 1000 buses at the expense of Congress, to help thousands of siblings on foot in UP, she said in a tweet in Hindi. Earlier in the day, Yogi Adityanath has said that he had sought the list of 1,000 buses that were being arranged by the Congress to ferry the migrant workers but their leaders did not provide him with the same.
