Our study shows increased response rates during the lockdown. More available time, pandemic-induced uncertainty, anxiety, and isolation likely drove people to respond, seeking connection or to communicate difficulties to authorities. 2/n

Women had significantly higher odds of proxy responses throughout the survey. With lower proxy response probabilities during the lockdown compared to pre-lockdown. n/n

Interestingly, employment status didn't significantly affect response rates. 3/n

At the peak of the pandemic, telephonic surveys became the mainstay of data collection. The importance of telephones as modes of data collection is likely to grow in the coming years. But what determines response to telephonic surveys? 1/2

Aadhaar linkages of individuals and bank accounts already exist. If residential information in the Aadhaar database can be efficiently structured, this would allow for geographic targeting.

Economic policy needs to address those who have seen the greatest distress during lockdown

The urban poor is still finding it difficult to return to work. Targeting social safety nets towards them is necessary as the economy struggles to recover.

Alongside the loss in income, the safety net measures announced in the wake of lockdown extension are kicking in. Although the proportions of households receiving benefits are higher than observed in other parts of the country, urban exclusion is worrisome. #DCVTS
