Abstract

COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by a novel coronavirus that affects most of the people around the world in their respiratory system. The COVID-19 crisis has affected the married Indian women in a different way and overloads them in all aspects during the quarantine period. Across every domain, from health to the economy, safety to societal protection, education to occupation, this creates a greater impact irrespective of their professions. Psychological and economic impacts are felt especially by working women who are getting moderate and low income and close to the poverty line. Unpaid work has amplified at home, with children out of school, spouse work from home, intensified special care needs of elder persons, and other emotional uncertainties. To explore various impacts of lockdown due to COVID-19, this study analyzes the challenges and opportunities of a married woman with a special reference to TIER-II selected city in India.
