Union Railways Minister Piyush Goyal said the Railways will continue to provide states “as many (trains) as they want,” to transport passengers returning home amid the lockdown. However, the minister alleged that over 250 trains have been “wasted” because states that requested for them could not bring in passengers. "Maharashtra alone could not use more than100 trains as they could not bring passengers," he added.
