In a tweet, Akhilesh Yadav described those at the helm of affairs as heartless people who remained silent in spite of knowing everything.

घर लौट रहे प्रवासी मज़दूरों के मारे जाने की ख़बरें दिल दहलानेवाली हैं. मूलत: ये वो लोग हैं जो घर चलाते थे. इसलिए समाजवादी पार्टी प्रदेश के प्रत्येक मृतक के परिवार को 1 लाख रु की मदद पहुँचाएगी.
— Akhilesh Yadav (@yadavakhilesh) May 16, 2020
नैतिक ज़िम्मेदारी लेते हुए निष्ठुर भाजपा सरकार भी प्रति मृतक 10 लाख रु की राशि दे.
उप्र के औरैया में सड़क हादसे में 24 से भी अधिक ग़रीब प्रवासी मज़दूरों की मौत पर अवर्णनीय दुख. घायलों के लिए दुआएँ.

सब कुछ जानकर... सब कुछ देखकर भी... मौन धारण करनेवाले हृदयहीन लोग और उनके समर्थक देखें कब तक इस उपेक्षा को उचित ठहराते हैं.
ऐसे हादसे मृत्यु नहीं हत्या हैं.
Bahujan SamajParty (BSP) supremo and former chief minister of Uttar Pradesh, Mayawati said that the accident exposed the irresponsible attitude of the government towards migrants. The BSP supremo demanded action against officers who did not fulfil their responsibilities and sought financial assistance to families of those who were killed or injured in this accident. Mayawati expressed her condolences to the bereaved families.
I demand Chief Minister to take action against the officers who didn't fulfill their responsibilities. Families of those who were killed or injured in this accident should be provided financial assistance. I express my condolences to the bereaved families: BSP Chief Mayawati https://t.co/WBUv3ahzFS

Mayawati also pointed out that on Friday, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath had stated that labourers who come to Uttar Pradesh or pass through the state will be taken care of. The chief minister had said that officers would make necessary arrangements for their food, transit and shelter. Mayawati added that it is unfortunate that the chief minister's directions are not being taken seriously by officers because of which a big accident occurred in Auraiya.
Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra described the gruesome accident at Auraiya as heart-rending and wondered why the government was not making necessary arrangements for the migrant workers to reach home safely. Either the government does not know what is happening with migrants or is indifferent, she added.
.#Auraiya की हृदय विदारक घटना ने एक बार फिर यह प्रश्न उपस्थित कर दिया है कि आख़िर सरकार क्या सोचकर इन मजदूरों के घर जाने की समुचित व्यवस्था नहीं कर रही है? प्रदेश के अंदर मजदूरों को ले जाने के लिए बसें क्यों नहीं चलाई जा रही हैं?

क्या सरकार का काम सिर्फ बयानबाजी करना रह गया है? 2/2
