The Novel Corona Virus Disease (COVID-19) has affected approximately One Hundred and Ninety Nine Countries and Territories around the world that has its origin from the Wuhan City of China. Majorly, this virus has affected not the underdeveloped nations but the developed or developing nations on a higher rate. The World Health Organization has declared this disease as Pandemic. It has a direct effect on the each and every individual in the whole world but those who are suffering in extreme way are the workers of an unorganised Sector, specifically the women workers. They are the one who are daily wage workers, they earn their livelihood on daily basis and ensure the sustenance for them and their family. This epidemic has resulted into a countywide lockdown which consequently resulted in the closure of all the shops (except shops with essential commodities), construction sites, offices, startups, etc. where these daily wage women workers used to earn their livelihood. It has brought a challenge before them with regard to their sustenance along with their family. This paper makes an analysis on how this epidemic and lockdown has locked the livelihood of the women workers of unorganised workers along with other effects and the steps taken by central and state governments to mitigate this effect.
