Health is Wealth:

The outset lesson we learned for 2021 is we must give precedence “to Health is Wealth”, no matter how rich we are. We can’t buy Health & Wealth from anywhere. We are only responsible for our own health & wealth. At this time we are facing Covid-19 but in future, it might be another thing.  That’s why “Survival of the Fittest” is the only unique precept lesson not only for us but also for the whole globe. If we are at optimum health then no diseases can enfeeble us. Plus our lifestyle should be changed to active by getting awareness on better health practices. And we eat nutritious food & do daily exercise, practicing sports, etc. Other than that we have become more careful about personal hygiene.

Respect & Gratitude to Real Heroes:

During this current tough life, it is momentous to respect & gratitude our “Real Heroes” such as Doctors, Nurses, Police, Sweepers, Social workers, Cleaners,  people who are working in a laboratory, Scientists, Vendors (Vegetables, Fruits, etc), Volunteers, Media Persons, etc because they are frontlines of this corona battle, while we stay safe at home. They are only the real heroes who served our nation day & night. It is the moment to appreciate & give respect to each and every staff. As well as continue to esteem them even after this tough time passes.

Value of food:

We also learned the value of food items like groceries, fruits, and vegetables in our daily life. At present food items are not readily accessible so these items are priceless to us. Also, we have learned to gratitude our farmers & vendors who are bringing these fundamental things to our doorways. Likewise, we have realized that we should never waste food because numerous people are unable to have even a single meal during this difficult time. 

Praise the Nature:

The next lesson we learned for 2021 is to realize that “Nature” is far more superior to us. Never mind how much we are advanced we are still mini little human beings who simply can’t think of ourselves as the Gods of the cosmos. In addition to this, we learned to “Save Nature” & “Survival to the Smartest”. Yet we are learning to handle ourselves with inadequate sources.

Learn how to Spend Time:

Besides we learn to spend our valuable time not only for money but also for our family members, loved ones, Kids, Friends, etc. by spending time with family members is priceless. In addition, we also learned to concern, share, love others in distance, and also know about the value of life.

Save Up Some Money:

We learned the value of money, and how crucial it is to save money for future or tough situation. Along with we learned to live this life with whatever we have.

Outlive without fast food:

We just have to learn & leave fast foods in our minds & lives. Every single person can survive without fast food. As now we know that delicious food can be cooked at home also.

Adopted for WFH:

By virtue of the Covid-19 outbreak has been the shift of multitudinous workers to work from home. Besides Work from Home (WFH) is not a newfangled practice as there are multifarious freelancers who work for numerous firms remotely, but just now it has been adopted by the firms for almost all of their workers. Presently, Work from Home (WFH) is the only choice left for the firms to ensure the health safety of their staff. In addition individuals from some occupational groups like teachers in primary education that had very little experience with working from home so were shifted to such arrangements. Concurrently certain occupational groups like translators have a momentous experience with work from home. Firms like RPG & Tata Group have recently permitted their workers to work remotely. More or less 83% of people in India are still scared about going back to the office because there is no vaccine for this pandemic till now. For the very first time in the history of the human race, a multitude of Indian employees has simultaneously been required to Work from Home (WFH). At this moment staying home is the only weapon to fight this epidemic. This coronavirus outbreaks an enormous chunk of people is doing work from home (WFH). According to the modern survey revealed that 88% of Indian firms have encouraged workers to work from home during this epidemic. It is also worth noting that Work from Home (WFH) has evolved into a normal practice for countless firms. In accordance with scrutinizing also revealed that only 11% of the employees felt more productive working from home (WFH). Once a new way of working has been established all over the globe, it might be hard to go back to old fashion. 

Discipline:

Even so, “Discipline” plays a chief role & a key to a successful life in our life. As more, it acts as a connection between the attainments of the targets. In fact, a fine disciplined person always goes higher than those people who are indisciplined in their life. Following discipline is absolutely crucial for enhancing learning for the future. Likewise, it becomes tough to live a joyous & peaceful life without proper discipline. 

Learn to use Technologies:

This epidemic has changed education forever. On a global scale over 1.2 billion children are out of the classroom and have got online learning/ e-learning whereby teaching is undertaken remotely. Around the world, the teachers & students get together to achieve great things with relative use of technologies, plus we learn to open doors for new technologies. In few countries classes have been teaching by “Whatsapp”, because this was one platform majority of students & families were used in their daily lives. Beyond abroad, teachers have set up virtual “BitMoji Classrooms” featuring colorful cartoon avatars of themselves. Likewise these spaces act as a friendly online version of their familiar classroom space for students to check what they should be learning & access resources. Some teachers have worked out Google Meet & Zoom app teaching; it includes live demonstrations, experiments, & workshops. Whereas technology will play a vital role in reconsidering the possibilities for teaching and learning, especially in support of virtual learning. In addition, pretty much students use learning apps like Byju’s, Toppr, Vendantu, & unacademy, etc for better learning.

Upgrade Communications:

Apart from that, the teachers have taken it upon themselves to establish a connection with their students/ learners. Multitudinous communication on a daily basis, not only with students but also with their parents, such communications made by the use of smart devices allow the teachers to set clear goals. As well teachers can plan tasks to allow students to work at their own schedule. And they are able to offer choices of activities and encourage students to take initiatives based on their field of concern.

Our India has been in lockdown since 25 March to curb Covid-19 infections, causing roughly 120 million people could be pushed back into poverty and increased jobless, all of which declines the GDP of India. As stated by CMIE (Centre for Monitoring the Indian Economy) currently India’s unemployment rate is 27.1% from it more or less 122 million have lost their jobs. Of it, roughly 91.3 million were petty traders & staffs, but a fairly momentous number of salaried staffs (17.8 million) and Freelancers (18.2 million) have also lost of employment. This new rate of India’s unemployment figures is four times increases than that of other countries. Owing to Covid-19 epidemic ongoing safety lock/ lockdown not only vulnerable India’s economy and its population, and is compared to how much more effectively with other countries. At this juncture, utmost employers are fighting to make wages, because they cannot give the payments to their staff because they don’t have the funds to provide wages to workers/ staff. Multitudinous formal & informal Micro and Mini businesses is paralyzed. Moreover, numerous own account workers like Small scale entrepreneurs, Street & Small vendors have lost their jobs/ incomes due to lockdown & they stayed home, in spite of working from afar it’s not a good way for the social-economic disadvantaged workers.

  • First of all our scientists tries to eradicate the Covid-19 pandemic wholly by finding new vaccines. Then our government helps & untie its financial restraint this will be helpful to recover our economy and grow as soon as possible
  • Next, our government endeavor to promote & provide loans for Start-ups, Micro Business, Mini Business, and Medium business at the lower interest rate in both public & private banks this will also help our peoples to grow their business in a short period of time

Too it plays a key role in “Indian Economy” & approximately providing 15-20% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Some scholars pinpoint that “Agriculture” is four times worthwhile than other fields in increasing economic growth/ rate
  • Then strengthen & restart the rural economy of India by giving agricultural loans to farmers at a low-interest rate and enable the survival of  Mini & Medium business
  • Certain staffs are worked as remotely in their home thereafter the disease is under control our government tries to create new job offers for unemployed peoples

Release Entry Ban:

This entry ban/ travel ban is interim but their impacts will be a prolonged period of time. More or fewer Rs 10,000 crores losses in taxes for each and every day of the lockdown at this moment government small finance to sanitation facilities because of epidemic & exigency bailouts also financed by the government of India. It has provoked a slump in nearly all sectors of the economy from manufacturing (56.4 million jobs as reported by Periodic Labor Force Survey in the year 2017-2018), construction (54.3 million), retail trade (37.3 million), agriculture (205.3 jobs), and hotels & restaurants (8.7 million). As well this affects staffs directly employed in these fields, but also enormous vendors/ Manufacturers that are indirectly linked. So the pandemic disease is underneath control our government tries to release the entry ban/ travel ban this will helps to increase our economic growth.

Improve the quality of education:

Eventually, during this lockdown, our children lost a good quality of education because they are not in schools, only middle & upper-class children have to get online learning but poor children didn’t get such facilities. Once the epidemic disease is under control our government tries to aid, provide & improve the quality of education as usual.
