Amitabh Bachchan Books 3 Flights For Migrant Workers

Actor Amitabh Bachchan has arranged three flights so that about 500 workers could go home to Varanasi. A source revealed, “Everything is being done with utmost discretion as Bachchanji doesn’t want it to be publicised. He was moved by the plight of the migrant workers and decided to help them. He has chartered the Indigo Airlines’ Varanasi-bound flight that is scheduled to depart on Wednesday morning. The 180 migrants scheduled to travel on the morning flight have been asked to report to the airport at 6 am. The initial plan was to send them home by train, but the logistics didn’t work out.” It is said that Big B is also arranging for a few more flights to ensure migrants reach their hometowns in West Bengal, Bihar, Tamil Nadu and a few other states. A few days ago, he had arranged for 10 buses to send migrant workers to their hometown in Uttar Pradesh. He also supported the families of 1,00,000 daily wage workers belonging to the All India Film Employees Confederation by sponsoring their monthly ration.
