The Yogi Adityanath government in Uttar Pradesh has said it will follow the guidelines set by the Central government for lockdown-4.
Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya said the state government welcomed the Centre's decision to extend the lockdown till May 31.
"We will follow the guidelines and relaxations allowed by the Centre. Our priority is to ensure that migrant workers reach home safely and we have deployed buses at all entry points to ensure their safe return to their homes," he said.
The Deputy Chief Minister said all the migrants are being subjected to medical screening at the quarantine centres where their skill mapping will also be done. On the basis of skill mapping, the migrants would be given jobs as per their skills when they complete home-quarantine.
