Abstract

Even though migration plays a significant role in the economy in terms of developmental practices, their rugged livelihood was brought to light during Covid-19 crisis. Using primary survey among the inter-State and intra- State labourers of Titagarh in West Bengal, an attempt is made to examine the financial inclusion and post-Covid effect on their income, remittance and different aspects of their livelihood like free food grain, employment loss and child immunisation..
