COVID across the world has created pandemic and a significant effect of these experiences is in the Global South. Within the Global South, the most affected are the most impoverished places in third-world countries. An unprecedented increase in the number of migrant workers has taken shelter in urban resettlement colonies in search of shelter and basic livelihood. In this scenario, India is no exception. The resettlement colonies among urban fringes have turned into large-scale urban settlements in the post COVID times. These resettlement colonies in India in post COVID times mostly display a sordid state of affairs where residents live in a state of great compromise. This article analyses the level of social acceptance in few of the resettled colonies that has been affected by addition of migrant workers during COVID. It tries to identify a methodology for measuring social acceptance in resettlement colonies and establish them through numerical analysis.
