how life and culture are affected by covid-19 in india
Answers
Answer:
The culture and arts sector has been one of the most affected by measures all over the world in this Covid 19 epidemic. The effects of Covid-19 are having a devastating impact on health services around the world. Beyond the immediate threat to life, livelihoods and the economy are also affected.
COVID-19 is also laying waste to the cultural schedule, forcing cancellations and suspensions of some of the biggest cultural events organized all across the nation, serving as a medium for education, promotion platform and transfusion of heritage from one to another – Artists to Audience and Guru to Learner (Teacher to Shishya).
Fairs and festivals are very important in culture to revive and understand culture closely. There have been delays and cancellations of major national and international festivals. Major concerts and festivals, such as the International Women Folk Dance festival organized every year in India by Charu Castle Foundation have been cancelled, affecting the movement of more than 2000 artists from across the nation.
Outside of India big festivals have been suspended. FOLKLORIADA was cancelled and postponed for next year, which was to bring together culture groups and artisans from more than 80 nations, the biggest in the history of CIOFF®.
Every year, many cultural groups from India travel to various nations as a cultural exchange, which promotes India’s rich culture on the world’s platform. This was a major setback, both morally and financially, as many groups had already booked their tickets, and had expenses relating to rehearsals and costumes.
Many activities held in India are celebrated annually, supporting livelihoods, boosting the economy, supporting the regional artists and its subsidiary alliances. Such festivals and fairs supports the promotion of culture, reflecting its importance for future generations.
Culture and tourism go hand in hand. A large number of tourists visit India’s major heritage sites, which have been closed in the lockdown.It is estimated that more than 30% of international tourists come to India to visit the cultural sites.
Large scale gatherings have been banned in all major states of India. Many people have chosen to self-isolate, or to avoid large scale gatherings. This has led to many events being cancelled or postponed. Many people working in the culture, arts and cinema rely on these events for a large proportion of their income or to supplement their freelance earnings.
Artists represent the real and original channel for the transmission of culture from one generation to another; their originality, live expression cannot be matched by ONLINE.

Explanation:
COVID-19 which is said to have emerged from Wuhan (China) has caused a serious impact on almost every society of the earth. Due to the problems caused by this particular health crisis all over the world, the World Health Organisation (WHO) has declared it as a global pandemic. Not only that but because of its rampant spread countries were forced to stop international travelling as well as locked up themselves. Also, the lockdown has been recognised as the only method to control the spread of the pandemic and almost every country has adopted this method.
Amidst the lockdown in Indian society, multiple issues related to social, educational, economical, political, agricultural, psychological levels and many more have been noticed which has created the devastating impact on the lives of the people.
If we analyse the act of “social-distancing” sociologically, isn’t it a new form of untouchability? Of course yes, as earlier in the Indian society after the Vedic period, people of the upper caste used to maintain social-distancing with untouchables so that they don’t impure the people of upper caste. On the same pattern, in the contemporary society due to Covid-19 all the constitutional norms eliminating untouchability and promoting integration seems to be failed as people are asked to maintain social-distancing.
Of course, it (social-distancing) is the only measure to control the influence of Covid-19 and it should be promoted but we need to see the impact of this pandemic on the society how it has revived the social discriminatory practices.
Impact of Covid-19 has been multiple and not only limited to society at large. From the perspective of the economy both rural and urban have been impacted adversely. Everyone has seen the issues being faced by migrant workers, will they be the same when Covid-19 ends? Of course not. The migrant workers depend on daily earnings, they barely have savings which they could spend during any emergency.
Many of them have already abandoned this world (beautiful?). Those who didn’t have many resources left with them have started to move to their villages because of the unavailability of jobs and money in the cities. Walking thousands of miles barefoot with their child, pregnant wife, Can we feel that pain? No, never, we can’t feel the pain because only those can feel it who bear it.
Apart from migrant workers, gig workers have been gone through a similar issue though it has not got much attention in the news. These workers e.g., delivery boys, cab driver etc. Because of Covid-19, the world came to stagnant position, so the online platform which leads to the economic hardship of this section of the urban economy.
Moving from the economy, the impact of Covid-19 on education has been cruel and its repercussions will be seen in the upcoming future. As per the report of World Bank titled “Beaten or broken: Informality and Covid”, WB has warned that there will be the lifelong impact of school closures on the productivity of this generation of students.
Children being out of school for about eight months might forget some facts as well as impact their learning capacity.
So, what is the benefit of nearly 100% enrolment ratio at primary level education? Despite one of the greatest achievements in enrolling the students at primary level Covid-19 is stopping us to reap its benefits in the coming future.
With any pandemic or any situation which impact the society at large comes the problem of psychological trauma. The lockdown has proved that “man is a social being” because continuous lockdown for about four months have impacted people psychologically and the burden has been faced by women and children in the form of domestic violence.
In the lockdown period, multiple calls have been received on the helpline number made for the people going through domestic violence.
