The communities in Canning, Basanti, Kakdwip, Kultali and Sagar islands around Sunderbans in South 24 Parganas have suffered quite a lot during this lock down situation owing to the outbreak of COVID-19. Substantial number of people have lost their livelihood and struggling to survive with their families. A large number of migrant labourers have returned home after almost 2 months of the lock down period.
The latest disaster that has hit these islands is Super Cyclone Amphan. More than 30,000 people have lost their dwelling houses. Over 10,000 mud houses have been washed away. The agricultural lands have been submerged with saline water. It would take about 2 years to start agricultural activities in these islands.
The survival of the people is at stake with majority of them having no livelihood options left. The migrant labourers would not go back to their place of work in next one year time. This would result in lack of livelihood leading towards starvation among the families. Anti-social activities would be increased while children, adolescents and women would suffer the most. Cases of domestic violence, abuse and child marriage have already increased since the human trafficking rackets are active in these areas.
