Lucky and Soni step into a tea shop, where they meet and talk with a group of people about the Covid-19 lockdown and how the pandemic changed their lives. In India, 80% of the working people earn less than Rs. 15,000 a month. Through their conversation, it emerges how the government expected them to deal with the lockdown, and why better provisions were not made to ensure that people did not go hungry. A livelihood survey by the Azim Premji University stated that 90% of respondents had cut down on food intake in the first year of Covid-19 alone. Millions of poor are not covered under the food security system, especially migrant workers who often do not have the necessary address-proofs and documents to get a ration card made in the cities in which they work. Finally, the discussion is about the suspension of the mid-day meal scheme during the lockdowns and how it has created uncertainty around nutrition of children.
