Durg (CG) to WB by bicycle during lockdown against Coronavirus in March 2020

Durg (CG) to districts in West Bengal (1100+ kms) by bicycle towards the end of 1st week of nationwide lockdown against Coronavirus/ Covid19 in end-March 2020 by about 35 migrant labourers.
Almost all of them had very little money left in their pockets and most were riding empty stomach.
The location appears to be somewhere in the jungles of Sirpur and Barnawapara (CG) on erstwhile NH6.
