Lucknow: The minister of the Yogi government of Uttar Pradesh has given a controversial statement about the migrant workers. On the Auraiya road accident, UP Minister of State for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) Udaybhan Singh said that our condolences are with them. None of them had invited the accident, but the reality is that it would not have happened if they had not given up patience. The government is providing food and water.

He said that stalls have been made in different places, khichdi is being made, food is being fed. Some people are staying, some are not. On giving a disputed statement, he said that the workers are running from the fields like thieves and dacoits. We are calling them, drinking water. The minister was also seen defending the administration and police during this period. On Udaybhan's statement, Congress state unit president Ajay Lallu said, "The minister's statement is extremely shameful and condemnable. It is like ridiculing the poverty of workers. If you cannot cooperate with them, then who gave you the right to make fun of the helplessness of the workers. ''
