COVID-19 in India

Tuesday, 23 June 2020 - 8:30am to 9:00am

 

On today’s program we get an update on what is happening in India following the sudden and unplanned country-wide lockdown, ostensibly in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In our March 3rd program of Accent of Women, we learned that Narendra Modi, leader of the authoritarian, right wing and ruling party of India, the BJP, shut down all manufacturing, public transport and public infrastructure with little to no notice of its people. It left millions of migrant workers stranded miles from home with no way to return.
