Terrible condition of labourers on the road - Since the imposition of sudden unplanned lockdown - poorest of the poor suffering the worst- due to the collective apathy of the system - despite being the fundamental base of all construction work and factory shop floors the unorganised workers are hit the hardest due to the Covid-19 pandemic - heading back home with no future in sight they are now even more vulnerable - maybe many are already carrying the deadly corona virus - the apprehensive roles of WHO and Chinese Government are also responsible.

Under lockdown, well-off Indians isolate indoors, work from home and get groceries delivered.

But outside their windows, it's a different story: Poor laborers amass in the streets, hungry and homeless.

In a video posted on Twitter, a woman calls down to a crowd of people gathering below her window. They yell back up to her, desperate: "There are 400 of us here without food. We need help. There are lots of children."

Emptied of most vehicles, Indian highways are instead lined with bedraggled, poor pedestrians, many carrying all their worldly belongings in bundles on top of their heads. Some cradle infants in their arms.

"I just want to go home," one man sobs to an Indian TV reporter. He says he's trying to walk from the capital, New Delhi, where he worked, to his home in the eastern state of Bihar — at least 600 miles away.

Even though the coronavirus toll in India appears to be low — the government is reporting about 1,200 active cases and 35 deaths in a country of 1.3 billion — Prime Minister Narendra Modi has imposed one of the world's strictest and biggest lockdowns, ordering all residents to stay in their homes for 21 days as of March 25, with a few exceptions for essential workers in hospitals, food shops and law enforcement.

The lockdown has left tens of millions of migrant workers unemployed. They're often from rural areas but live most of the year in India's megacities, serving as day laborers, construction workers or domestic help.

Most are thought to have no savings. Many lived in factory dormitories, now shut, and got stranded when the government halted bus and train service last week. They're vulnerable to starvation and infection.

Advocates for the poor say that while they support the lockdown to save lives, the way it has been rolled out — with apparently little guidance for the poorest of India's poor — may mean the lockdown itself endangers more lives than the coronavirus.

"The staying power of India's poor is very, very short. People like casual laborers, rickshaw pullers and migrant workers are basically living from hand to mouth at the best of times," Jean Dreze, a Belgian-born Indian economist, told NPR in a phone interview from his base in the eastern Indian state of Jharkhand. "Now suddenly overnight they are told that they have to spend 21 days inside their homes? Naturally, many of them are already running out of food."

Activists across the country have been sending videos of hardship to Anjali Bhardwaj, a food rights activist in New Delhi, who has been posting them on Twitter. "Heart-wrenching videos and pictures of people carrying their little ones on their backs and walking hundreds of miles to go back to their villages from cities like Delhi," she tells NPR.
