Abstract
Emphasis of corona virus coverage has been on “corona warriors”- doctors, paramedical staff, police and the lot; Indian children from disadvantaged backgrounds are vulnerable to risks of different order. Though according to the figures they are not affected much from the health effects of novel corona virus, the lockdown and its aftermath will definitely have deep ill effects on their well being. India is a young nation with 39% population below the age of 18years. Children are the future human capital; the profound effect of lockdownon disadvantaged children will be catastrophic and long lasting to society, economy and business. This desk research is an attempt to shed light on the plights of the disadvantaged categories of children due to lockdown in India.
