UP govt decides to bring back 7500 stranded students from Rajasthan's Kota

BSP chief Mayawati on Saturday welcomed the Uttar Pradesh government's decision to send buses to Kota in Rajasthan to bring back home students stranded in the coaching hub.

She demanded that similar steps should be taken to facilitate the return of migrant labour families from the state who are stuck away from their homes.

"The UP government has sent many buses to Kota,



Rajasthan to safely bring back home around 7,500 youths studying in various coaching institutes who are stranded due to the lockdown. This is a welcome move. The BSP also praises it," Mayawati said in a tweet in Hindi.

The Uttar Pradesh government on Friday sent 250 buses to Kota, popularly known as the coaching capital of the country, to bring back home the students stranded in the city due to the lockdown.
