COVID-19 has been declared as a global pandemic by

World Health Organization (WHO) and identified as a

Government of India has announced a “lockdown”

across the country for 21 days and advised citizens to

maintain “social distancing” to check spread of the

at the bottom of the pyramid, especially, the migrant

workers in the cities, factory workers, daily wage

earners, farm laborers, etc. are the worst affected and

struggling to arrange daily essentials such as food and

medicine.

CII is extending all possible support to the affected

building regarding the best hygiene practices,

importance of handwashing and social distancing, and
