Abstract

The recent COVID-19 pandemic has brought multi-layered vulnerabilities across the social, political, humanitarian, ethical, and economic dimensions of people’s everyday lives. While many countries followed strict lockdowns, control on mobility, economic and social activity, and social distancing requirements, India adopted a very stringent lockdown on 24 March 2020, with only four hours of notice given to the entire population (Ghosh in J Ind Bus Econ 47:519–530, 2020).
