Covid-19 has disrupted the lives of all walks of people. It created impasse due to lockdown. The government has imposed restrictions to sustain public health. So the economy has come to a standstill. The government should take certain measures to propel the economy. The government has to lend sops and loans to the farmers to boost khareef season. Hence agriculture sector is the key sector to spur other sectors. Coming to industrial sector the management has to allow employees to work on shift basis following COVID-19 norms. The management of the schools have to open more sections to avoid overcrowded classrooms.

Pandemic to have long-lasting impact on society
The concept of social distancing has brought a lot of change in the daily routine. People irrespective of caste and religion, literate or illiterate are maintaining social distance. In the future there will be some impact based on social distancing, for instance people may not be ready to attend meetings or functions where it is crowded. The pandemic has stopped all kinds of activities and this had brought about a huge impacted on the people who are living on their daily wages. In most of the areas, the local leaders are coming forward to donate the necessaries that are required to continue their livelihood. Covid-19 has also hit the education sector very badly and as such elaborate measures must be initiated on a war footing to overcome the problem. Though, some institutions are conducting online classes, there are umpteen shortfall as well. One of the major issues is that many of the students do not have the proper equipment required for online study at home. If possible the government should build a proper source for this. The Great Depression was the worst economic downturn in history. With the cooperation of society and the support of the government, we can fight this pandemic. For sure we will find the proper vaccine. STAY HOME STAY SAFE.
