How the coronavirus crisis has exposed fissures and fault lines in nations around the world. In India, 1.3 billion people received four hours' notice before a strict lockdown took hold. Immediately, a great exodus began from India's cities. Migrant workers, suddenly out of work, made for home on foot. We hear from prize-winning author Arundhati Roy, who joined them, and analyst Pratyush Rao on what this crisis has revealed about India's enduring problems with religion and class.
