Non-Profit Praja Foundation has released a report on the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on Mumbaikars, with one of the main findings suggesting a 29 per cent drop in per day incomes. Apart from this, 23 per cent respondents left the city due to job loss and fear of COVID-19.
The report studied the impact of the pandemic on livelihood, education, health, housing and transport. While most people prefer bus over trains after the pandemic, work from home (WFH) seems to be the future. Respondents also appeared to be satisfied with the COVID treatment in public hospitals and with online education.
