The economy greatly affected by the Pandemic.
Unemployment rate in India has increased.
It is not just about the cases when we talk about the pandemic. It is also about the individuals and families that suffered in this time. There is not a single household in India, that did not get affected by Covid19, be it by family members testing positive or being hit financially.
Only looking at the second wave, in this short time as well, over 10 million Indians lost their jobs. The income level in almost 97 per cent of the households has declined since the first outbreak. Chief Executive of Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy (CMIE) Mahesh Vyas shared this data recently.
