“…It is important to note here that in agriculture, FWPR was 38. 6% (0.64 million in 1983-1984), which jumped to 92.7% (1.3 million in 1993-1994) during the 1983-19841993-199420171983-19841993-199420171983-19841993-19942017CAGR (1983 Agriculture pre-reform period. It might be due to two reasons: first, both the industrial and service sectors witnessed a fall in employment for females (from 22.6% to 1.5% and from 32.8% to 5.7%, respectively) in the corresponding period.…”

“…Because colonial rulers consciously developed Punjab as a food grain-producing state, post-colonial rulers, who inherited the legacy of colonial rulers, adopted the same model. The dominance of smallscale industry and its dependence on the big industry of the state is a major obstacle to the industrial development of the state (Gill, 1983). The dismal scenario of the industrial sector in Punjab is further clear from the fact that the share of the industrial sector in State Domestic Product (21%) is less as 1983-19841993-19942017CAGR (1983 Period-I (1983-1984 to 1993-1994) Period-II (1993-1994 to 2017-2018) Overall (1983)(1984) compared to India (31.46%) and other developed states, including Maharashtra (33.6%), Tamil Nadu (34%), Gujarat (45%) and Karnataka (59%), as per the Reserve Bank of India, 2017-2018.…”

The story of Punjab’s economic development witnessed an asymmetrical shift in the structure of output and employment due to the intensive capitalistic model of production in agriculture. The present study, based on National Sample Survey Office data, examines the patterns of employment and output in rural economy of Punjab during the pre-reform and post-reform period. Rural Punjab witnessed fall of work participation rate and phenomenon of ‘defeminisation’ of the labour force in agriculture during the post-reform period. There is a paradigm shift as the share of non-agriculture employment increased to 59.3% as per Periodic Labour Force Survey 2018; consequently, the non-agriculture sector becomes a major driving force in the state economy. An increase in employment elasticity among all sectors (except construction sector) during the post-reform period is a good sign. But a substantial decline in employment elasticity for all the sectors (except the construction sector) of Punjab is a disquieting phenomenon during the study period. Amidst the agrarian crisis, the rural non-farm sector can emerge as a silver lining, but evangelists of market economy disregarded the rural non-farm sector. Hence, the state should abdicate its neoliberal policies and adopt post-Washington consensus for the development of the rural non-farm sector within a given mode of production.

“…Consequently, enormous efforts by scholars, NGOs, and governments were absorbed in the development of successful and harmless vaccines for COVID-19 ( 12 ). Vaccination movements in high-income countries are fast-tracking in the world, but the population in low-income countries continues to be grievously exposed to COVID-19 ( 13 ). This gap is not only due to the inaccessibility of vaccines for COVID-19 but also due to the different perceptions of the community about the COVID-19 vaccine.…”

BackgroundThe COVID-19 pandemic has severely affected the entire world, especially sub-Saharan Africa. As a result, researchers and government agencies are working to create effective COVID-19 vaccinations. While vaccination campaigns are moving rapidly in high-income nations, COVID-19 is still ruthlessly affecting people in low-income nations. However, this difference in the spread of the disease is not because of a lack of a COVID-19 vaccine but mainly due to people's reluctance. As a result, this review summarized the data on COVID-19 vaccination adoption and factors related among nations in sub-Saharan Africa.MethodComprehensive searches were conducted using PubMed, Embase, Medline, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and the Cochrane Library databases. The risk of bias and methodological quality of each published article that fit the selection criteria were evaluated using Critical Appraisal Checklist tools. All statistical analysis was done by STATA 16.ResultsThis review was based on 29 studies with 26,255 participants from sub-Saharan Africa. Using a random-effects model, the pooled prevalence of COVID-19 vaccine acceptance among study participants was 55.04% (95 % CI: 47.80–62.27 %), I2 = 99.55%. Being male [POR = 1.88 (95% CI: 1.45, 2.44)], having a positive attitude toward the COVID-19 vaccine [POR = 5.56 (95% CI: 3.63, 8.51)], having good knowledge in the COVID-19 vaccine [POR = 4.61 (95% CI: 1.24, 8.75)], having government trust [POR = 7.10 (95% CI: 2.37, 21.32)], and having undergone COVID-19 testing in the past [POR = 4.41 (95%CI: (2.51, 7.75)] were significant predictor variables.ConclusionThis analysis showed that respondents had a decreased pooled prevalence of COVID-19 vaccination acceptance. Sex, attitude, knowledge, government trust, and COVID-19 testing were statistically significantly correlated characteristics that affected the acceptability of the COVID-19 vaccine. All stakeholders should be actively involved in increasing the uptake of the COVID-19 vaccine and thereby reducing the consequences of COVID-19. The acceptance of the COVID-19 vaccination can be increased by using this conclusion as an indicator for governments, healthcare professionals, and health policymakers in their work on attitude, knowledge, government trust, and COVID-19 testing.
