Summary
The lockdown in wake of COVID- 19 has been particularly catastrophic for the poor and those falling in the daily wage bracket. Within this group too, the most severely affected are the women, especially young girls and senior citizens primarily above the age of 50 who have no money to survive. With essentials commodities like ration, medicines and daily hygiene products already difficult to access, the lockdown has further reduced their ability and opportunity to procure these items.
