AICC general secretary Priyanka Gandhi spoke on migrant crisis in Uttar Pradesh on Wednesday. She spoke over the row erupted on buses for migrants at Rajasthan-Uttar Pradesh border. "We'll have to understand our responsibilities. They (migrant labourers walking to return to their native states) aren't just Indians but India's spinal cord. The country runs on their blood and sweat. It's everyone's responsibility. It's not the time for politics, "she said. She vowed that every possible help will be provided to the migrant workers who are stranded. "At 4 PM it will be 24 hrs since the buses were made available. If you want to use it, do it. Give us permission. If you want to use BJP party flags and stickers on buses then do it. If you want to say that you made those buses available, do it. But let the buses run, "she added.
