StoriesAsia Caravan | Dispatch 5 | Delhi
Stranded Workers Walk 500 KM to Return Home

For this fifth video dispatch in the StoriesAsia Caravan series, our reporters found a group of about 50 garment factory workers who were walking from the town of Rohtak in Haryana state to the city of Kanpur in Uttar Pradesh state. A distance of almost 500 kilometers. It would at least take them just a walking time of close to 100 hours to return to their homes, and that could mean many days of walking.

India has been under a 21-day curfew beginning midnight of March 24 due to the COVID-19 outbreak.



*** "On the Road" is a new series by StoriesAsia on the Coronavirus outbreak where we bring you stories that help you respond to this ongoing historic pandemic.
