Impact of Covid-19 Pandemic on Rural India: An Empirical Study

Abstract

The rural population of India is the main focus of this study and the impacts of the pandemic crisis in 2020 on specifically rural India are discussed in this study. A large percentage of the entire population of India is the rural population which has been suffering from unemployment. There are many schemes and policies provided by the Indian government for the financial development of the specific population but the rapid increment of unemployment is poorly impacting the economic stability of rural India. The researcher has used secondary sources such as articles, news journals and governmental sites for gathering numerical data which are evaluated quantitatively. Thereafter, SPSS software is used for generating descriptive statistics and graphs. Statistical analysis of collected objective data improved the quality of the article as well as made it more understandable.
