What the paper says

The post-Covid scenario has shown that the development path India has traversed can likewise create cities that can be what B. R. Ambedkar called a “republic of humiliation”; the experience of exploitation, oppression, violence, indignity, and exclusion is not the exclusive prerogative of the “village republic.” While the post-Covid effects can in no way be restricted to the “migrant workers,” and neither can the “working class” be reduced to them, our focus remains largely on migrant workers for reasons that are not of either their or our choice but of history.
