Pandemic-hit economy

In Bangladesh, the Covid-19 pandemic has created a socio-economic crisis. Many rural citizens working in the capital had to leave Dhaka as they could not afford to pay rent and afford other necessities during the lockdown. The banking sector suffered badly from nonperforming loans. The government should take necessary initiatives to recover from this socio-economic crisis. The government can focus on private investment to stimulate the post-coronavirus economy.
