But books like these present us with the heart wrenching stories of people who went through so much that makes our souls shiver . One such story of migrant laborers is 1232km .
When lockdown was announced on 24 march 2020 many people faced uncertanity , some lost their jobs ,some had no work because they were daily wage labourers . While others were working from home some had no place to call their home . These migrant labourers had to move back and be a part of inward migration .
The story of these seven bihari migrant labourers presented to you in the sense of a documentary is a part of greatest exodus since partition of 1947 . They passed through many difficulties like avoiding police officers , finding places to eat ,sleep and repair their cycles . The most dreadful story is how they tried to cross ganag with cycles on their head , fortunately they were helped by a ferryman .
