CPI (M) report on imapct of 2nd wave across NCR

The Delhi unit of CPI(M) on Friday released a report on the impact of the second COVID wave in Delhi-NCR.

The survey showed that despite the additional ration entitlement announced by the government, 27% of the households got less than 5 kg ration per person in May this year. The survey also said out of 1,917 respondents across the Capital and Ghaziabad, 65% had no employment in April and May.

“Even the rest faced a considerable loss of employment. Around 14% of them did not find any work for more than 30 days in two months, 6% for 15-30 days in two months and 4% for 15 days in two months. Only 3% of the respondents reported that they did not face any loss of employment,” the report read.

The report also reflected that 72% of those, who worked as casual workers before the second wave, had no jobs during April and May.

“While most casual workers became unemployed, those who were self-employed were also unable to work for many days. Hence, they saw their incomes falling drastically,” the report said.

The survey also showed that a large section was also unable to access subsidised foodgrains through the public distribution system during the second wave.

Letter to CM

In a letter to Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, the party said around 78% of the workers had not received their first dose of COVID vaccine.
