Even if up to half of the returned migrants leave the state again, the question of how the rest will find gainful employment is both a political and economic issue.

One way of looking at India’s lockdown’s strategy was that it came too early, was the strictest of any country, and is now being done away with at a juncture when cases have not even peaked. The worst is still to come, both for citizens’ health and livelihoods.
