This Conference will be organized under an overarching theme viz India @75: An assessment of development Challenges in the light of Covid-19. The papers at the Conference are further invited to use the lens of Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand to dwell on development challenges, responses, and alternative strategies and paradigms. It is an opportune moment not only to reflect on India’s long-term trajectory of growth and development since independence but also on the immediate challenges posed by the pandemic, which also could have longer-term consequences. As pointed out above, these challenges are not the same for all sections of society. Current evidence shows that inequality has increased even as the poorer sections, the young, women workers, and the informal sector have been hugely impacted.
