As per report the dreams of returning home of 10 migrants workers are finally taking wing after two months of lockdown, as they are all set to fly to bihar, thanks to their employer, a delhi farmer, who bought their plane tickets. Their flight to the patna is at 6 am on thursday and the men, who planned to go home in april, can't believe they are going to their villages in Samastipur by not walking or cycling thousands of kilometres or scrambling for a seat on a bus or train, but on a plane.

"I never imagined in my life that I will be travelling on a plane. I don't have words to express my happiness. But I am also a little bit nervous about what I have to do when we reach the airport tomorrow," Lakhinder ram, who will be returning with his son said. He is grateful to Pappan Singh, a mushroom farmer in Delhi's Tigipur village, who is helping rewrite the migrant narrative, which has so far been about unpaid dues, hunger and arduous journeys home resulting in illness and even deaths. Lakhinder, 50, who has been working for Pappan for 27 years, said the farmer has been taking care of their food and accommodation since the lockdown began on march 25.

Pappan said he has booked tickets worth Rs 68,000 and is also giving each Rs 3,000 in cash so they don't face any problems when they reach their home state. He will also drop all his workers in his vehicles to the IGI airport early on thursday while following social distancing norms. "These 10 workers would have left for their homes in bihar in the first week of april on the train but they could not go due to the lockdown," Pappan said. He said he had made several attempts to send them back to their home state in a Shramik Special train but could not manage to do so.Pappan said he has completed all their medical formalities, in accordance with the requirements specified, so they have a smooth journey home."Medical fitness certificates have been issued by authorities to all 10 workers and they are fit to travel in a plane," he said.
