    Jharkhand Journal of Development and Management Studies XISS, Ranchi, Vol. 19, No. 1, January-March 2021, pp. 8617-8633 RETHINKING ATMANIRBHAR BHARAT ABHIYAAN IN THE CONTEXT OF COVID-19 MIGRANT LABOURERS: A CHALLENGE Shyamal Gomes1 In March 2020, the sudden lockdown in India due to COVID-19 severely affected 8-10 million migrant labourers who are the backbone of Indian minor, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs). They struggled with various issues like starvation, transportation to return home, sexual violence, Corona-phobia, Islamo-phobia and job insecurity as well as labour rights. Moreover, because of Centre vs State conflicts as well as social stigma like caste-class-power, the poor and marginalized labourers lost their basic/fundamental necessities. As a socio-economic reformer, on 12th May 2020, the Hon’ble Prime Minister of India, Sri Narendra Damodardas Modi announced a combined fiscal, monetary, regulatory, and structural reform packages of INR 20 trillion, about 10 per cent of India’s GDP, and explained India’s economic and social strategy postulated under the Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyaan (ABA) self-reliant India movement, and Be-Vocal-for-Local (BVFL).

Credit plays a significant role in Indian economic system also. Indian economy is agriculture based where agriculture is regarded as the cornerstone that provides source of livelihood to its rural population. The credit is a synergist that even out the process to stimulate the farm and non-farm sector development including rural industrialization business and service segment of the economy. This paper attempts to review the evolution of rural credit in India and study its status and growth hitherto. Analysing the background policy interventions in the Indian rural financial system will help in understanding the various phases of credit delivery pattern.

  • Atmanirbhar Bharat: Missing a Focus on Air Pollution and Climate Change
    JULY 2020 ISSUE NO. 375 Atmanirbhar Bharat: Missing a Focus on Air Pollution and Climate Change CHETAN BHATTACHARJI ABSTRACT Will the government’s ambitious mission, ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat (self-reliant India)’ eventually prove to be a missed opportunity? Earmarking funds worth 10 percent of India’s GDP, the mission not only aims to respond to the devastating blow caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, but also to serve as a long-term roadmap to growth. It is largely hinged on business-as-usual practices, including providing a push to the coal sector, which may be understandable given the economic fallout of the nationwide lockdown. As a “vision” document, however, Atmanirbhar Bharat falls short of substantively addressing two bigger crises facing India: air pollution and climate change. This brief outlines why these two issues need to be front-and-centre of any policy, and why there needs to be a “greener” Atmanirbhar Bharat 2.0.
