Persons with Disabilities whose are critically affected by the current influx COVID-19 pandemic.
Persons with disabilities have been critically affected to their petty trade and lost their all invested capital due to countrywide lock down for COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, they are burden as well as neglected to their family and community.  All we know that, most people affected due to the COVID-19 pandemic and also deprived from all income generating activities.
 
For being of their disabilities, they are double discriminated by the society and community due to could not be involved in any wage earning. As a result, they are burden as well as neglected to their family and community. It is known to all that, most people affected due to the COVID-19 pandemic and also deprived from all income generating activities. Among them low income and persons with disabilities are under worst situation.
 
As I have assessed about their present situation and prepare a database in excel more than 100 persons with disabilities whose were involved with any works i.e. mobile servicing, tea stall, petty  trader, poultry rearing, assistant of grocery shop, nut seller on road side etc. But, it was found that; they have been lost everything for countrywide locked down in last 4 months due to COVID-19 pandemic. Currently, all they are living under predicament situation.
