Dealing with a gathering after distributing the e-Shram cards he proclaimed that the Jammu district will touch “new heights of achievement” with proper implementation of this scheme as this has so much to offer to the unorganized sector workers.
Nonetheless, Vinay said that over nine crore workers and labourers across the country have registered their names on the e Shram Portal. “The e-Shram Portal, launched in August, stores a comprehensive database of the country’s unorganised workforce. Those registered will be eligible for Rs 2 lakh coverage for accidental death and permanent disability and Rs 1 lakh for partial disability”, he said while addressing the gathering and asked the beneficiaries to spread the message across the union territory of J&K so that no unorganized sector worker is left behind as the Modi Sarkaar wants that every single worker should avail the benefit of e-Shram and allied schemes.
Gupta said, in future, all the social security benefits of unorganized workers will be delivered through this portal and in emergency and national pandemic like situations, this database may be utilized to provide necessary assistance to the eligible unorganized workers”, he expanded that PM, Narendra Modi has come up with umpteen public welfare schemes for the impoverished and underprivileged but the purpose of these schemes can only be served when every single soul will get enrolled and avail benefits of the same. He maintained that the Modi government wants that not a single unorganized worker will remain untouched by Government schemes and facilities as the main aim of the Government is to provide succour to the workforce in the country with no prejudice or partiality coming in the way.
Rajesh Gupta, Narinder Koki, Jyoti Sharma, Naveen Gupta, Monu Salathia, Sangeeta Sharma, Sr Gurdayal Singh and others were present on the occasion.
