Uttarakhand BJP on Thursday termed as ridiculous offer made by the Congress to reimburse the travel expenses of migrant workers returning to the state, saying the question does not arise as they are not being charged for the journey.
"The Centre and the state government are together bearing the costs of bringing back the migrants. The Congress's offer of reimbursing their expenses is therefore ridiculous," Pradesh BJP Vice President Devendra Bhasin said.
The Centre is bearing 85 per cent of the expenses and the rest is being taken care of by the state government. The Congressstatement is meant onlyto delude people, he said
