The COVID-19 outbreak has had a significant impact on street vendors selling food, mainly in India, affecting various sectors of the economy. This study examines the impact of the pandemic on street food vendors in India, including multiple perspectives such as economics, society, and health. This study investigates the effects of lockdowns, restrictions on movement, and health anxieties on the economic activities of street food vendors. The research utilizes primary data obtained from interviews with street vendors form Jammu, Punjab, Delhi and Uttar Pradesh, as well as secondary data derived from Publications, government records and media sources. The paper examines how digital adaptations, community support structures, and government initiatives in the informal sector can potentially mitigate these effects. Consumer behavior has shifted towards sanitation and safety, resulting in significant financial losses for vendors, an increase in food insecurity, and heightened health concerns. The paper underscores the importance of street food culture in urban India's socio-economic stability. It highlights the need for comprehensive governmental actions to preserve the informal sector.
