Indian migrant workers during the COVID-19 pandemic have faced multiple hardships. With factories and workplaces shut down due to the lockdown imposed in the country, millions of migrant workers had to deal with the loss of income, food shortages and uncertainty about their future.[1][2] Following this, many of them and their families went hungry.[3] Thousands of them then began walking back home, with no means of transport due to the lockdown.[4] In response, the Central and State Governments took various measures to help them,[5][6][7] and later arranged transport for them.[8][9] 198 migrant workers died due to the lockdown, with reasons of road accidents.
