Migrant workers from Uttar Pradesh state sit stuffed inside a
goods truck to return to their villages hundreds of miles away, during a
nationwide lockdown to curb the spread of new coronavirus on the outskirts of
Hyderabad, India. The lockdown that began March 25 sent an exodus of workers
from its huge informal sector fleeing the cities to their ancestral homes in
the countryside. Economists say unemployment reached 24.7% this week.
