Bus and train stations in India’s capital New Delhi have been overwhelmed as thousands of migrant workers flee the city.
The latest restrictions to curb the spread of the coronavirus have seen many daily wage earners losing their jobs.
India is struggling to stem the world’s largest rise in cases.
Al Jazeera’s Elizabeth Puranam reports from New Delhi.

First thing is less tax payers.
Whatever taxes they have, most of it goes on political leaders, n number of parties and members into that, no control over it : there cars, residence, travel, etc.
Then spends over buying the weapons instead of building the best hospitality
Well this shows complete failure on the part of Federal government. Put into question India’s ability to compete with China.
Do not blame on double mutant virus. Modi is the REAL problem
Pathetic condition
The govt is so stupid that they hvnt learnt any lesson since last year..They r so dumb that they won’t clear any exam inspite of getting the question paper in advance.
@music tube 777 yes..it’s easy for feku bhakts to blame the people for all the wrong things happening in this country…bhakts even support kumbh mela supported by govt…bhakts r like kunti ( blindfolded )
@music tube 777 same stupid country where u reside
This situation could only happen because of underreporting of COVID rates…
Most of The Rich in India are already out from India. The Middle Class & Poor have No Other Choice..
who said ??? out of india ?? spreading wrong information may be hobby of your kind of people
Answer. of is a preposition which is used to express the relationship between a part and a whole. As all denotes nothing is left behind, the usage of of is unnecessary. But most is something which is not the whole, of is always needed to express the relationship
modi go back ….. to chaiwala
ANI is at the forefront of complaining .
2020 repeating. Government has learned nothing from it’s mistakes. RIP India under Modi.
Alhamdulillah
Democracy is working great
This show how India real are
around 90% of the indian workforce are employed in these informal sectors. India is literally a pre-industrial country, with a tiny bit of its people living in the modern economy.
Informal sector means sectors with no legal benefits or regulations,not necessarily a pre industrial one
Pre-industrial is a major statement…
I think it has more to do, with how divided the people are in society.
And on that point, India is still living in medieval times
@Nep Supremacist and it means those worker are treated as criminals and police have to get as much as bribe money they want
We had time to vaccinate people but supreme leader wanted to be ‘vaccine guru’.
India need more buses. thats for sure. It could be a good business opportunity for auto makers.
Problem mostly creates from States. I wrote uncountable times to Central & State government both providing unemployment allowance, benefits which help people to stop to roam unnecessarily in cities. Only Rajasthan provides Unemployment allowance, benefits. Not only in Delhi but also Chennai, Maharashtra, Banglore they all are in trouble. Now State government first choose to protect their States it’s their duty. This situation we see globally. British PM Borris Johnson did the same thing. Only for 13 days in Jan this year he broke lock down agin he declared for lockdown because Covid19 crisis was still existent. In our State CM is dependent on Refugees, illegal immigrants now I wrote to Central government providing First Class Citizenship Card which is provided by US, Europe. Like Vest land East Pakistanis later Bangladeshis are entering nonstop. Our West Bengal Ex Politicians Pranab, Ajay, S.S. Ray, Joti, Adhir, Mamata — present CM they all are responsible for that. Our Ex PM Indira Gandhi clearly stated — Refugees should go away from all religion after war — they Refugees are living in India like thieves, dacquaits. How could we survive? Now refugees are taking all benefits of first class citizens. Our State’s Capital city is captured by Bangladeshis, east Pakistanis. They are killing us, natives. Uncountable friends of mine had killed by TMC government. TMC have applied Black Magic, most worse protocol which force us, natives to commit suicide.
Ramprasad’s son had commited suicide. Pal sons Tutu, Mintu died early. Always we, natives get an invisible sound which is dangerous, furious, it makes our heart, brain damage. At night I feel very strange just like an invisible person’s appearance on the bed. I have been very weak, my heart, brain are in trouble. We are suffering in dangerous diseases. Nobody listen to us. Now we see BJP, perhaps they help to live natives peacefully. Perhaps they protect our lives. They provide us first class citizenship card, all facilities. We are real West Bengalees we are not East Pakistanis. We are living here before independence. Indian political bench is defective. Now Refugees are more than natives. We natives are unsafe. We need protection. We appeal US, Europe to speculate Indian political bench & figure out corruptions. We are not going any other country or State we are at home this is our house please protect us US, Europe, UK all……
Baharat try it best to portray her world power again and again
No sympathy with these people majority of them hard right wing extremist who voted modi to teach lesson to minority….. That’s it
Agar corona se sab politicians Mar jayenge to
Hum corona ka mandir banayenge😂😂
Fully support you on this brother! 👍🏽
India is going to Dictatorship.
Pakistan should urgently help india in this covid crisis
I think with their ego they will prefer death over Pakistan’s help.
Plus we need to make sure that we stay safe
When I see such videos of india in my mind always came those indian people comments who were shouting check r gdp 🥵
Agreed. They have too big of an ego to even realize their own problems.
May Allah keep us safe
It’s the first time in 700 years the indians are ruling themselves.
Don’t ignore the signs the day of the Lord is coming!
Jesus is the only way to heaven! If you are not certain where you are going after death, then this is your time to place your trust in Jesus Christ died for our sins. He loves you! ❤️
Islam is the only way to Jannah Jesus will return as a follower of Islam….
Jusus The White Dude Will See
forged god is the very evil itself.
I believe in Jesus (peace be upon him) . And I follow Jesus that Allah is the almighty God and Jesus (PBUH)is his prophet and Muhammad (PBUH) Is the last messenger (prophet) of Allah .
And every one following Jesus needs to follow prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and worship only Allah , the lord and the creator of all.
Fleeing not because of Covid but of economy. Useless corrupt democratic Indian government.
This is so sad
New Delhi is the ‘New Wuhan’?😨😨😰
last year, italy was like this, people returned to their hometown..and now India repeated history
Almost everywhere , we sell bus ticket according to available seat. India , still got space let fill it up
Corona go….. Go corona
This billion people how will they be ‘superpower’ if they leave🤦🏿💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩urine dung superpower
This is call Modi’s acha din
It is what it is
Interesting move to allow poor people to move from an infected city to all the towns they come from..!!
Indian prime minister is joker suggesting his people to sing “go corona go ” and corona will run ! The given new suggestion ‘ play music with steel plates and corona will run ” !!!! Then suggested ” to clap and clap and corona will run ” !!!! And surprising fact is indians” mentality like shhep,never thinks but follow Modi blindly !!!
LOOK AT THAT, my God what are they doing? They making the pandemic worse
This is Modi’s genocide! He’s relieving the State’s burden by allowing his people to die in such a heinous manner!
What a total mess
Where is sharukh khan?
Indian Government are losing it.
Leaders who followed Trump’s strategy on fighting pandemic likely led their countries into trouble just like India and Brazil !
It’s very easy to 💬 by watching YouTube in bedroom
No oxygen getting no beds availabile in hospital no getting common man hospital only getting beds to political , business person , government officers only common man had only death becoz no money no life this is truth of India there is no democracy in this country
Hopeless government hopeless government officers
Modi agenda hum do hamare do 🙏🏻
ya Allah help us
It doesn’t matter you fool … this country is populated & have seen tough times. Let them squeeze onto whatever… who cares ? Do you with Jazz talk? Survival of the fittest. Things will change & people will learn that’s what’s life about? Duck Head ….. chatterer. Gypsy Trail
where is shining
scapegoat : China & India borders.
Covid 19 is punishment from God for India for its crimes against Kashmiri’s, India will be completely destroyed wait and see for yourself,
Millions of people would have been saved…millions of jobs would have been saved …had China not started a biological war on the entire world by unleashing WUHAN VIRUS
Man…. And we wonder why they are dying like flies in India
Happens when the government is terrorist . so mean filling their own pockets even in so bad pandemic. the worst government ever 👎
The Modi government is the worst in terms of planning. So many preventable deaths in Northern and western states because of poor preparation for the covid second wave. He will be remembered in Indian history as the worst administrator.
Very bad condition in India
Religion gatherings and voting killed them, don’t blame anyone but themselves
I am surprise the Indians are not blaming on China 🇨🇳 like the west do ! Bravo 👏🏻!
CCP^
@Ryan Maggiolo wow……you are Delusional as fxxk 😂 Bullshit Nonsense over here just only makes you feel better but doesn’t make your country great 😂 COVID crisis is like an exam, a test, CHINA already passed the exam and share all the answer to the entire world, how a proper way to handle this kind of pandemic, and the whole world still failed the exam. Blame game won’t work, blame here blame there only coward will do, the more you blame the worst will become, mark my words.
India pakistan se kch sekho ham yaha corona ko jooty ki nook pe rkhty hai
Yes take covid back to your villagesm
So much time to prepare and this is where the incompetent government has reached. Really sad to see this.
I give mind to help you across over the virus covit quickly.
In situations like this we can see how fundamentally strong or otherwise a country has been running.
where did all those vaccines go, they were boasting so much about
OMG! Some climbing onto the bus were not wearing mask n what happen to social distancing?
They are insanely overpopulated they can’t distance from each other.
Their government donate so many vaccines to foreign countries but no more for their citizen?
Unfortunate
More festival😂
India brought this upon themselves…India needs a strong stern leader…the british..maybe even akbar or aurangzeb….not orange chaiwala….
India has an economy ? I’m sorry but India makes less than Texas n has a 1.4 bill population. That ain’t an economy. That’s slavery n one of the more poorest country in the world. Fact.
I wonder how indian even think about india becoming a superpower even after 200 years?? Looking at these images, one may realise india is even lucky to exist on the world map or China will break as if there was no india at all.
So sad. swallow pride ask your neighbour for help
The Prime Minister is a joke. Just like Trump and the clown in Brazil
Kejri ji , ab sambhalo migrant workers ko , gandhi rajneeti karte karte aap kab gandagi mein gir gaye pata hi nahin chala aap ko
Organize the migrants .. all RSS volunteers, seva dal , sikh community will come forward to feed them …. give them the farmer’s agitation land …
Now India and Pakistan must use their Atom Bombs to feed people and their health requirements
Nah… spreading Covid-19 virus to the rural areas. Not a good idea returning to your villages at this time.
Good luck India!!
As much as I am sad to see tgis happening in India, the fact that now rich indian people fly to Jakarta with their jets, as an Indonesian, I become worried, because they refuse to stay quarantine at hotels until the army sent their troops to guard those hotels. 140 indian people confirmed positive covid and stay at northern Jakarta hotels, some of them proof to have new variant. Indonesia should make a stricter and measurable action at this point🙄
I noticed a lot of people are very close to each other, this makes a less distance to travel for virus, so people get a higher initial viral load, so immune system goes into overdrive, that is what causes a sticky liquid inflammation in the alveoli deep in the lungs, which is very hard to shake off.
They have 1.36 billion people how can the distance from each other?
The ride on the roofs or trains and bus over there.
Given the size of population, even if 10% Indians perish (130 million), it won’t make a big difference
If a billion people disappeared in India they could have the population of the USA.
Its crazy overpopulated.
Crazy overpopulated with 1.4 billion people. It would take the entire population of Canada just to saff a proper health system over there.
Ask modi.
They are migrating, but how many among them could spread the disease…😧
What about treatment with getting blood serum for recovered covid patients??
In my country,we asked recovered patients to donate blood serum
But now because of coup, health system is fallen
Ya Allah to much population,,🙄😳
Please BROTHERS and SISTERS, I have a remedy for the respiratory system, pine nettels from the Sylvester pine tree, take 3 teaspoons of the nettles and boil to a liter of water, drink like a tea, not to be given to pregnant women or children, May our Almighty Creator Father, bless you all.
In my country some affluents buying rs 10 lakhs worth private Jet tickets to UK and leaves the country. Where some can’t afford rs.100 to reach their hometown😏
New Delhi as center economies , labory, entertainment , government, trade, politics ,
This is not an India only problem, it’s a world wide problem. Not wanting to listen to life saving orders in order to continue our little selfish lives as usual. An Indian trump “president” doesn’t help the situation either. We got rid of our sociopathic narcissist…..it’s your turn to get rid of yours India.
I thought India was going to be the next world leader ? Taking United states ?
Again…! 😢
These people drink water and wash themselves in the same river they defacate, throw garbage and even dead people.. I am not surprised by what is happening
We might know more about the new varient if they hadn’t made it worse by attending big political rallys and religious festivals and massive markets etc all without any mask in sight. The government did nothing to prepare for this 2nd wave and that’s in spite of them saying they knew it was coming I heard that today from the government spokesman so why didn’t they prepare. They were too busy holding election rallys to care about the people they expect to vote for them and modi and his government can stop criticism in India but they can’t stop it all and I’m so angry while begging for help from everyone they were holding another big rally today what is wrong with these people how many deaths do they want to see. And will the Indian people make them suffer or will they go and elect the useless government again when it’s time to vote
I wonder let’s see if their confidence is rewarding or is it bye bye for modi as it should be
Now corona is like a bomb in india.😥
The prime minister is now in india without even being qualified to herd cattle
Look man, india has the capacity to give people stimulus , sadly the government dont care… this what happen if you don’t fight back ..
