Hindi-speaking migrants continued to flee Gujarat Tuesday after attacks on them in several parts of the state, even as the ruling BJP and Opposition Congress engaged in blame game.

Police, meanwhile, intensified patrolling in areas near industrial estates and places where migrant workers stay. Since the rape of a 14-month-old girl in Sabarkantha district on September 28 and the arrest of a labourer hailing from Bihar for the crime, six districts, most of them in north Gujarat, have seen sporadic incidents of violence against Hindi-speaking people.
