Migrant workers at MGR Central Railway Station to board a special train to Manipur on Sunday
Assuring migrant workers from other States that they would be sent home within a week, Chief Minister Edappadi K. Palaniswami on Monday urged them to remain within their camps until then.
In a statement, Mr. Palaniswami said over 9,000 migrant workers from other States have been sent from Tamil Nadu on eight trains so far.
Co-ordination efforts were on to send home these workers based on their request and the acceptance from their respective State governments.
