Description
Prior to Covid-19, India's economic crisis, rising severance, low wages, and hazardous working conditions grew. On the other hand, the lockdown has made the migrants' living conditions even worse as a result of the pandemic. The government asked the people and used every means in its power to maintain "Social Distancing," but it has socially distanced itself from the poor and the underprivileged as a result of the widespread problem and measures taken to protect against it. These casual, unprotected workers face a number of current vulnerabilities, including a lack of social security, the fear of being laid off, a loss of income, and no prospect for rehabilitation or restoration. The problem suddenly dispersed the poor migrants, who were terrified and had no idea where to go because going back would only result in emptiness. Racial suffer from all aspects because they are the indigenous people who currently make up India's enormous migrant population. It raises a significant concern: Government strategies for dealing with the virus and these dispersed populations have been made more difficult by the sudden visibility of these migrant workers in Covid-19. The paper has attempted to investigate the conditions of racial and the consequences of tribal migrants migrating due to the constant circumstances that compel them to migrate and the threat of Covid-19 to meet and fight.
