Abstract
Every commercial activity has exaggerated due to the ruthless covid-19 pandemic. Construction sector is one among the hardest affected industry and facing multiple challenges to proceed. The entire civil engineering related activities across the country had halted due to restrictions put in the place by the Central and State Governments of India. Cumulatively, the multiple consequences of the lock down situations would cause the socio-economic condition of the industry. In these circumstances, an insight investigation was carried out by using Likert scale based questionnaire and this study is focused on the managerial condition assessment of the stakeholder of a brick manufacturing chamber, a construction industry driven unit, situated in Warangal, Telangana State, India. The problems with respect to retention of migratory labours, consequence in economic aspects of production process including health aspects of labour and its effect on the present scenario are evaluated and presented.
