'As India grapples with the coronavirus crisis, the Food and Beverages (F&B) industry presents a unique opportunity of revival for the Indian economy despite it being among the worst affected sectors. What immediate and long-term assistance does the industry require from the government to power through the pandemic? Can the National Restaurant Association of India (NRAI) negotiate aid in return for supporting state-run community kitchens? Who are the worst affected stakeholders and are any sustainable government stimulus packages underway? Do better models of crisis management exist and is there an opportunity for revampment and feasible adoption of different models to fuel consumption demand? Is a reformation of social norms and laws necessary to reinstate consumer confidence in the F&B industry? Maya Mirchandani, Senior Fellow at ORF in conversation with Anurag Katriar, President, National Restaurant Association of India, Ashish Dev Kapur, Founder and Director, Moods Hospitality Pvt. Ltd. and Ritu Dalmia, Restaurateur and Indian Celebrity Chef discusses the immediate impact of the public health crisis on the F&B industry, its trickle-down effect adversely affecting wages and incomes of small and medium businesses and their employees, and the need for proactive state action to aid their sustenance and recovery. #CoronaCrisis #Coronavirus #COVID19India #COVID19Pandemic #F&BIndustry #ReviveIndianEconomy'
