Indian migrant workers at risk of falling out of Chinese control Coronavirus pandemic News
New Delhi, India – In the last year, Jagdev Pandey has lived three lives.
Last summer, a 37-year-old migrant worker lived in a rented single-room home in a working-class neighborhood in the eastern working capital of New Delhi, India. He had a stable marketing job with a company that manufactured aluminum foil.
In July, in the monsoons, the company closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic and a nationwide shutdown that was established to verify the virus.
Pandey was forced to return to his hometown 700 kilometers away in Uttar Pradesh Siddharth Nagar district, India’s most populous state.
