Images That Shows How The Coronavirus Lockdown Has Affected The Lives Of Daily-Wage Workers In India

The novel coronavirus pandemic has forced almost everyone in the world to stay inside their houses so they could avoid contracting the deadly virus.

In March 2020, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the PM of India, announced that the entire country of India will be placed on lockdown in the country’s effort to stop the virus from spreading any further.

The lockdown, which is the largest in the history of humankind, has left the ordinary man and the rich inside the house.

With strict measures being followed by the residents of the country, India only has recorded over 28,000 cases of the virus, which is relevantly less compared to other countries such as China, Italy, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, Spain, and Germany.

With all the good things within the bad things in our country right now, the most affected in India are our daily wage workers, who heavily relied on the money that they earned on a daily basis.

Since the lockdown was imposed, the workers have been forced to stay inside their houses without any access to food, clean water, and some even shelter.

Images of some of the workers are viral on social media right now, and we want to show you how affected their lives are.
