The Novel Coronavirus has not only taken over the year 2020, it will have ramifications for decades to come. Changes to societal norms and developmental priorities, and de-globalisation forces gaining momentum are just some of the expected uncertainties on the anvil. This paper explores a myriad of effects and issues related to this history-changing moment in our times. It discusses some human development aspects that will be hit adversely, the central role of China in this ‘Black Swan’ event, impact on economies and a future scenario, the way-ahead including technology and community-based capability building, and role of Indian Armed Forces. It is also an opportunity for decisive change for a more self-reliant, egalitarian and resilient India.
