Lucknow, March 28: To prevent from the spread of COVID-19 infection, if a person is trapped anywhere middle of the road in Uttar Pradesh during the ongoing lockdown across the country, then immediately call 112 or WhatsApp on number 7570000100.
The Yogi government is determined will help those who want to go their home, informed Additional Director General of Police (ADG), 112 Asim Arun.
According to the ADG, 112 Asim Arun, on the instructions of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, the contingency service 112 has decided to provide all possible help to the people during the lockdown.
He said that due to the lockdown, many people are currently travelling on roads or highways to reach their homes. In this case, their help is our utmost priority.
The ADG said that if anyone is seeing someone trapped somewhere, he or she can also call 112.
He also said that at present there is a lot of pressure on 112, in such a situation, if stranded people provide information by WhatsApp on this helpline Whatsapp number 7570000100 numbers, it will be easy.
First of all, you have to write your name and mobile number on WhatsApp. After this, inform about your current location and from you have come and where to go.
Arun assured that the police will provide all possible help as soon as information is received.
Significantly, after the enforcement of 21 days lockdown across the country by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi to prevent from the rapid spread of the corona virus infection into community transmission, the migration of laborers and workers residing in many metros of the country including Delhi, Noida has started which went into much chaos.
All of them are returning to their homes by foot or other โJugaadโ somehow. Sensing the threat of corona infection, these homeless workers running in groups, the central government issued advisory to all the state governments of the country on Friday in which state governments have been asked to stop the exodus of these workers and labours.
After the advisory issued by the central government, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath immediately gave necessary instructions to the officers to help these laborers.
He has asked the officials to make arrangements for food and water for the migrant laborers coming to the state.
Chief Minister Yogi has urged the Chief Ministers of other states including Haryana, Maharashtra and Uttarakhand to make food and lodging arrangements for the people of Uttar Pradesh there so that all of them stay there instead of coming here.
He has also said that whatever expenditure will be incurred in this system, the Uttar Pradesh government will bear it. \
However, to speed up this task, Yogi also immediately appointed nodal officers for 12 states. These nodal officers have been given clear instructions that they will solve all kinds of problems of laborers and other citizens of the state under their charge. The Chief Minister has appealed to the workers migrating on foot not to do so. This puts the risk of corona virus infection higher.
