    Sonu Sood arranges buses for migrants stuck in Mumbai
  • In his latest endeavor to help the country combat the coronavirus crisis, actor Sonu Sood arranged ten buses for migrant workers stuck in Mumbai amid the ongoing lockdown.

    The Bollywood actor (46) sponsored travel and meal kits for these migrants.

    The buses started from Thane, Maharashtra on Monday for Gulbarga, Karnataka. Sonu was also present there.

    Here is more on this.

    Sonu took due permission from state governments

  • Sonu said that he took due permissions from the governments of Maharashtra and Karnataka before flagging off these buses.

    The actor, in a statement, added he believes that "in the current time when we are all facing this global health calamity, every Indian deserves to be with their families and dear ones."

    "I've taken official permissions from the Maharashtra and Karnataka governments," he informed.

  • "It was really moving for me to watch these migrants walking on roads, including the little kids and old parents," Sonu shared.

    He said he now wishes to continue this drive in other states as well.

    Notably, thousands of migrant workers across India faced the wrath of the coronavirus-induced lockdown. Rendered jobless, many of them walked on roads and rail tracks to reach home.
