Abstract

The unexpected COVID-19 pandemic situation has adversely affected the Indian economy. Barely any sectors could escape the catastrophic effect of this pandemic. The migrant community was also affected by this crisis. The purpose of the study is to explore the impact of COVID-19 on key industries such as automotive, health, education, tourism, and many others, and also the condition of migrant workers is taken into account. In this analysis, secondary data were gathered. The study contains secondary information from blogs, journals, reporting from international agencies, research papers, government documents, and websites. Government support is important to save lives for the most in need (primarily unorganized market, refugees, and marginalized groups). Indian economics must adopt sustainable development models that focus on self-confidence, inclusive structures, and environmental policies. This study can be beneficial to education institutions, stakeholders, policymakers, governments, and society.
