Kavita Kaushik On IAF Jets Showering Flowers For Corona Warriors: ‘If Only These Resources Were Used To Send Migrant Workers Home Without Train Fare’

FIR actress Kavita Kaushik is often sharing her views and putting forth her viewpoint on social and political issues. The actress is no stranger to trolls who abuse and also faces extreme criticism at times for airing her views, but she does so, nonetheless. She recently made the headlines for empathizing with Hrithik Roshan, and showing her support to Adhyayan Suman, after the whole Kangana Ranaut-Rangoli Twitter controversy. Now, Kavita Kaushik has reacted to Indian Air Force choppers flying past hospitals to pay tribute to Corona warriors.

Kavita Kaushik stood up for migrant workers and addressed the issue of them having to pay for train tickets to go back home amid deep financial distress. Recently, Indian Air Force choppers flew past hospitals in several places across India, as the forces expressed their gratitude to medical professionals and all frontline workers in the fight against Coronavirus. In several places, flowers were also showered from the helicopters outside hospitals. Kavita Kaushik reacted to this news and put forth her view saying that these resources and oil should have been used to send migrant workers back home, without charging them for the train fare. She also said that instead of showering flowers, they could've used the funds for buying kits that could have saved lives.

She tweeted, “यही तेल मजदूरों को घर पहुचाने के लिए ट्रेन में डाल देते, बिना टिकट चार्ज किए!?, फूलों की बजाय वो kits मंगवा देते जिससे जान बचती है !? बेहतर नहीं होता? डॉक्टर इस टाइप के इवेंट से ऊपर है इस समय आई थिंक.”



While most agreed with Kavita Kaushik, a few felt that boosting the doctors and medical workers’ morale is also of utmost importance. While one user wrote, “Indian Railways gave 151 crores to PM CARES and is charging migrant workers for intrastate railway tickets to send them home. How shameful,” another user wrote, “One thing is true, do anything people will find flaws. If nothing would have happen to in courage the doctors than these people said government is not giving any appreciation to our front line warriors.” ALSO READ: Adhyayan Suman Has Left The Kangana Ranaut Chapter ‘Miles Behind In Life’; Reacts To Kavita Kaushik’s Tweets In His Support
