The Weight of Uncertainty

18 March 2020

historical moment(s) in time

Uncertainty. Insecurity. Unpredictability. Precarity.

I embarked on my fieldwork at a very particular time in history (as all researchers do). The peculiarities, and particularities, of these times have played a significant role in the Human Security of women who work on construction sites in India, those women whose experiences and conceptualizations of Human Security I am trying to understand.

As the saying goes, “The only certainty is uncertainty.” (Pliny the Elder) Though all historical times are replete with uncertainties, some seem more so than others. This is one of those times.

A major slowdown of the Indian economy was brewing and completely spilled over when I got to India seven months ago. Wages stagnated; consumer spending fell; construction, real estate, and other industries, were sent reeling. The slowdown sent India’s daily economic life into a spiral of uncertainty. And construction workers' very livelihoods into constant question. Uncertainty became the very backbone of their existence.

Then the country was rocked by the central government’s continuous assaults on Muslim Indians; protests, and hyper-aggressive protest crackdowns, became the norm. One of those assaults, the Citizen Amendment Bill (CAB), was passed. Poor Indians who often do not have much documentation attesting to their existence (over 60% of them are born at home so have no birth certificate, for example) could no longer rely on being considered ‘citizens.’ Construction workers have no idea how this will play out. More uncertainty for poor laborers.

And then coronavirus hit. People stopped shopping. People stopped going out. People stopped having a public life. Informal workers, small roadside vendors, rickshaw drivers, those who clean cinemas, gyms, and schools (all of which are shut) got less and less work. More uncertainty still.

Construction work, however, for better or for worse, is still going on. Many construction projects had been delayed or canceled due to India’s financial downturn — but not yet due to the coronavirus. So people who had jobs working construction still have them. Those construction projects that so far survived the slowdown are still fully operational. The impacts of this are yet to be seen. Construction workers labor in close proximity with one another; social distancing is impossible on sites. Typically lacking safety gear (except on a very select few sites), they of course now have no masks, no hand washing stations, no sanitizer. Uncertainty. Uncertainty. Uncertainty.

As is evident, those who bear the brunt of all these global, and local, forces are those who are least able to shield themselves from the blows. Poor, un- or under-educated migrant workers with no cushion to fall on.

I did not plan to undertake my fieldwork when the forces of uncertainty were so overpowering. But that is what happened. And continues to happen. How much uncertainty can a people withstand? Quite a lot, I am finding. More than a lot. What my fieldwork has shown to me in the most dramatic fashion is this: Lots of poor people withstand incredible amounts of uncertainty. They withstand it, but they do not ignore it. Uncertainty dominates their lives. It dominates the way they even think about their own, and their family’s, security, or what comprises security. Their security desires are so simple, so basic. Mostly, they want stable jobs and a stable income. Why? So they can know their little shacks won’t be demolished by the whims of politics, know they’ll have food, and know their children will have a basic education. I hear that time and time and time again in my fieldwork. They’re not asking for much — but the hurdles to achieving it are often insurmountable.

Despite the fact that uncertainty is in the very air they breathe, people who live in such poverty do not become numb to it. They feel the weight of uncertainty all the time. It’s heavy, but they live with it. They live. They make decisions; they make families; they make lives. And, honestly, I find it astounding.

********************

25 March 2020

I wrote that only one week ago, but since then, everything has changed. In Mumbai (and in other parts of India, as well), everything started shutting down…slowly slowly at first and then with a speed and efficiency which has left us all out of breath. Mumbai went from being the world’s most densely populated city constantly pulsating with life to being the world’s most densely populated city now as still as a graveyard. I am sure that’s how it feels all over India, too, now that lockdown has been imposed across the whole country.

Not more than a couple days after I wrote the above piece, construction work started shutting down. Because I could no longer do my research (kinda hard to do fieldwork when I can’t leave my apartment building), I reached out to my contacts at the NGOs with which I have been working. I found out at that point that about half of all construction workers were no longer working. This was not just day laborers but those with more consistent work, too. Then the lockdown happened in Mumbai, and of course almost everything (except essential services) ceased — including construction work. In fact, the lockdown happened so quickly that many construction workers — most of whom are migrants from rural parts of Maharashtra or other states — got stranded in Mumbai. Because virtually all transportation was shut down (both within India, as well as to and from India), and Maharashtra had closed interstate borders, the workers could not get back to their villages.

I have a case in point right next door: one of the buildings in our compound is being renovated and the work did not cease until the lockdown made it absolutely impossible for them to continue. Now the workers are stuck here, living in the gutted building. They have electricity in the building, but there is no running water and I am not sure how long they’ll be able to afford food without having their income. Based on my research, I can extrapolate that most of these men have families back in their villages whom they support monetarily, too. So who knows if their kids or their spouses or parents will be eating much now? I want to talk to the trapped workers but with the strict lockdown rules and social distancing requirements, I can’t right now.

The state government of Maharashtra has promised relief to daily wage workers, including construction workers. They are promising basic food rations and some cash (amount not yet disclosed — which likely means 0 rupees), and to construction workers they are promising to pay them their salary from days not worked. If you know anything about how well Indian social schemes are implemented (hint: NOT AT ALL), you will know that this relief package is a bunch of hogwash. I know what pro-poor and pro-poor policies exist here. I also know what policies exist specifically regarding construction labor. And if any of the lax and corrupt implementation of those policies is any indication, then the informal sector laborers here are in deep deep trouble. As in, can’t even feed their families trouble. Labor unions and NGOs are begging PM Modi to consider nationwide relief packages for daily wage earners, too. We’ll see how far that goes.

May the gods of coronavirus tread lightly on these poor workers. They don’t need even more hardship piled on them. But as my agnostic self whispers my little prayer, I know the hardship, the uncertainty, the wrath of the world, will be worst for the very people I came here to study. It always is.

10 Most Charitable Celebrities Of Bollywood

It is a known fact that Bollywood celebrities influence millions of people all around the world. They have fans who look up to them for inspiration and follow their examples in many ways. While they are mostly admired for their acting, they are respected more when they give back to society in whatever way possible. With the fame and fortune they possess, they are at liberty to help causes that they believe in. While paparazzi usually share gossip about them, it is equally important to shed light on the difference that they make in society. Here is a list of celebrities who not only work for recognition but also for a cause:

1. Deepika Padukone

Besides being an actress with exceptional talent, Deepika Padukone is also generous at heart. In a country where mental health is still considered a taboo topic, the actress was strong enough to open up about her fight against depression and the importance of mental health. She is the founder of The Live Love Laugh Foundation that aims to raise awareness about mental wellness. She launched the campaign #DoobaraPoocho in association with the NGO Indian Psychiatric Society for which she became the brand ambassador.

Everything you need to know about reshuffle no. 3 of Narendra Modi's Cabinet

Third reshuffle of the Union Cabinet, being termed the last one before the General Elections of 2019, by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday promoted sincere and hardworking ministers, inducted new faces with potential and talent to work and silently dumped all those who proved to be the non performing and could not come up to the level of the Prime Minister's expectation.
