More than 21 days since the beginning of the Coronavirus lockdown, the exodus of migrant labourers continues. With cops on the watch all day, migrants are trying to leave during nighttime. Navi Mumbai police detained 92 such people who set out on foot for their homes in the past few days.

In the first case, on April 12, 78 people were stopped by cops on patrol. "The labourers were from Yadgir, Karnataka. They started walking from Belapur village. Police on patrol at Sion-Panvel Highway stopped them and took them to Kalbhairav Mangal Karyalaya in Kalamboli, where they will be provided food and shelter," said an officer.
