A background study was conducted initially followed by data collection through both primary and secondary data sources. Details regarding the general profile of the administration, demography of the area, land use pattern and the existing infrastructural facilities were collected.

Further, a detailed inspection was done and a survey was carried out to understand how the ward and its residents performed during the lockdown and due course of covid 19.

Socio-economic profile of the residents as well as the functioning status of various infrastructural facilities present were also collected. Spatial data collected was represented with the help of GIS. Three hypotheses were formed to assess the performance of the study area. Two of them were proved right. In conclusion it was found out that the study area was able to function quite well during lockdown as well as in the course of covid 19.
