Thats right to those who dont die soirees a very important political constituency for this government and it is looking at to you know get some back some of the credit that it had lost in the mismanagement of well the migrants of course the chief minister of carolers voicing early concern that the infrastructure and the facilities perhaps not ready are his concerns reflected across india with other state leaders or politicians what are they saying also father gary locke chief minister has been that was welcomed of all this we have a look that much from what the state governments but this is the issue that had been discussed during the preparations within the ministry of this in the document in leading up to the announcement of the if you like to bet creation that its well there had been if you remember the india had evacuated a lot about 2400 people people there knocked out all that. Other countries at that time it had been debts and indeed medical teams to those countries to do these are t. P. C. At their best but youve got to finding that those people when they did when they did you when those indians were brought back to india and they were in quite some time but not them tested so it was basically a risk of calculated this that the government has taken in bringing back the use of the factory they didnt do it without doing in a screening in terms of whats happened since the lock down to testing and screening whats your impression about how the Indian Government have tried to really get a hold of the problem that india is facing it had a huge jump in figures on tuesday. Thats right and there have been a mob 1900 new cases that when the board did what they lost but it was the Indian Government has said that this is because the state governments have not just the 4 different numbers for the court which was to cases only timely madam that point me said you mean self but thats one of the reason though you didnt back up to be done in that time even in the 4 oclock but the action is basically you need to show that if you think you can. Do enough for the indians nationals have been spotted abroad and what made me think youd be additionally the Indian Government again and again if you look at them try to call them up all the Indian Missions and the facebook loans they have been flooded by these indians what in saying that the. Other countries have been. Citizens back why arent you bringing us back you know so this is basically a divulge agreement says indeed it is all about the Public Relations message isnt it on one side you have the Indian Government now working to get all of these hundreds of thousands of people back to india via or via sea and yet the domestic Migrant Worker sell foul of the government on the authorities when they try to get home to their respective towns and villages we saw images of Police Beating them rather than helping them they beat them and they didnt help them and that didnt go down too well with the indian public at large all watching these pictures on the television screens. Thats right. Basically though the old mans wonder what the white men booklets have been a rather lax what the government starting talking. In the announcement up that got out after just for all of these sickening which led to the migraine work of school in you know call into the streets in the millions yeah you could see the indian cities when you go just walking down there you can see the back when workers at the familys walking dull and you know just going to their 100 walking hundreds of kilometers down to their home to know what thats why this is the look back to light also had the differently abled put them that comes up tell them what they want to basically get out of that. You know big job of those Migrant Workers and there and you know walking what looks beats with well. Basically even one thing many of them have but lets not dilute. Up walking as its a kilometer thats all is i think done to themselves and of course i mean if i could just interrupt you just very quickly for of a final question because only 24 hours ago we were reporting of the images we saw from. This estate in the west of the country for our International Viewers there Migrant Workers who had been promised food shelter and again tickets to get back home were left stranded they were getting angry and there was this real concern the most probably the carolus state minister is voicing that initial concern that we need to make sure that the authorities that have new delhi that are taking control of the situation really have taken control of the situation before it gets out of hand because were not talking a few 100 migrants here were talking thousands coming back to india. Thats right because most of the lives of so migrant welcome knowledge is over were going to be coming back one goes to doing so you wont notice that what is driving the fraud will be basically quoting dont know we just didnt think when you in here and what in thailand but the state governments so the state governments are basically of human response ability in this whole matter and they are the ones that have plans and woke up the warriors basically writing code with 90 and naturally being with me about it that basically this would lead listen to a good number of nifty for them i will leave it there thanks very much for joining Us Diplomatic editor for the wire from new delhi thank you thank you so much buying a beer or whisky in indias capital state has just become a lot more expensive a 70 percent alcohol tax has been imposed in delhi to try and determine large crowds queuing outside shops Police Used Batons to disperse crowds on monday indians rush to buy their favorite tipple after the government eased virus restrictions and allowed shops to reopen for the 1st time in 6 weeks.

Well after denying any involvement in the developments in venezuela President Trumpeted out of washington for the 1st time in weeks lets cross over to our White House Correspondent kelly held at for more on this so where is the president going and who is he going to meet. Now the president is headed to arizona thats where there is a company by the never how do you well one of those companies thats been pressed into making personal protective equipment including this and 95 mass that hospital and other front line workers who are treating chronic virus are inclined to where to protect them and to keep them safe in the midst of all of this what were seeing is a real shift on the messaging of this white house and particularly the president who is focused on trying to reopen the economy in the midst of this pandemic and doing so in light of some very disturbing numbers the fact that there are studies out now suggesting that with the reopening of the economy there could be an increase in the number of infections of cope with 19 in the United States and also deaths 200000 infections projected out from 25000 by june 1st a day and in terms of deaths that the number could be as high as 3000 deaths by june now the white house has just responded to that wide reporting out of these numbers in fact the press secretary kaley mcenaney saying in a statement just now that this study is based on false assumptions this is not representative of federal government projections in the study she says considered 0 mitigations this is something the u. S. President donald trump also said as he was departing for arizona she says that the study in these numbers are projections do not take into account any sort of guidelines in place by the federal government in other words no Contact Tracing no expansion of testing and really also does not take into account the sort of shelter in place protocols that have been put in place so the white house in the last hour pushing back on this wide reporting of these alarming infection numbers that have been projected for the United States but also can be the president you know hes not just pushing back against viruses of pushing back against his chief medical advisor as well they just do not seem to be on same page. No they certainly dont dr anthony found chief who is a widely respected Public Health official here in the United States and has spoke very candidly and openly often in contrast this time for the 2nd time in contrast to what the president s messaging is saying that he believes that its very unlikely that this virus originated in a lab and will haunt china and the reason this is significant is donald trump as well as the secretary of state might pump aoe have said just that in fact what dr anthony found she is saying is that he believes that this was something that involves a nature he also says that this was not artificially or deliberately manipulated now whats interesting in all of this is even as he speaks out in contrast to the president the president has said in just the last couple of hours that he has now cleared the way for anthony found she to testify before the Republican Controlled Senate as early as next week this is significant because initially there was a blocking of any of Public Health officials testifying on capitol hill now we have this lifting of that edict by the white house notable though he does not what. The u. S. President does not want to be found to be testifying in the house that is controlled by democrats the president saying thats because essentially theyre trying to use coronavirus to sort of weaponize this against the trumpet ministration and essentially win the election in november complete tall White House Correspondent thank you. Its a to europe now where russia has reported more than 10000 new cases for the 3rd consecutive day now that raises the total number of confirmed infections to around 155000 infections have been registered in all 85 regions of russia with moscow being the epicenter or concerns are being raised in russia after 3 medics fighting the pandemic have been killed or injured in accidents in the space of just over a week in late april 2 doctors died after falling out of hospital windows one of the women had reportedly spoken out about a shortage of supplies for her staff the other was being accused of spreading the virus to her colleagues a 3rd medic is in serious condition after a similar fall on saturday no he complained the week before about a lack of protective equipment im being forced to work despite testing positive for cope with 19 well the falls are being viewed suspiciously by many in russia several critics of the government to fall and to their deaths in recent years rachel denbigh works for Human Rights Watch in new york and she says theres no question russia is struggling. There is still a shortage of hospital beds there have been many reports of ambulance ambulances lined up outside of hospitals because they cant find a bed for for the people theyre bringing and balances taking them home or and then taking taking them back to another hospital trying to find that the hospital also doesnt have a bed so its struggling we also have reports of ambulances of shortages of personal protective equipment there was a report of workers who talked about having to actually go out to a Home Improvement store to buy construction suits that they would then use for their personal protective equipment i think there are serious crowns for alarm at how medical workers are being treated if they try to speak out about about their conditions of work there is a law in russia banning fake that dance fake news and in the context of covert 19 its the expense of criminal sanctions right up to 5 years in prison and fines that range you know up to you know tens of thousands of dollars if you spread whats called fake news and some of the some of the cases that have been which there have been warnings about criminal cases or even the you know the opening up of a criminal destination have included medical workers who were complaining about raising the alarm about a lot of protecting the lack of the protective equipment.
