PULWAMA: Deputy Commissioner Pulwama, Dr. Basharat Qayoom chaired a comprehensive review meeting today here at administrative complex Pulwama to review the implementation and progress of key pension and social security schemes, including Pradhan Mantri Shram Yogi Maandhan (PM-SYM) and PM-Kisan Maandhan Yojana (PM-KMY).
During the meeting, the Assistant Labour Commissioner (ALC), Pulwama gave a detailed presentation highlighting the objectives, eligibility criteria, enrolment status, sector-wise coverage and challenges related to the implementation of the pension schemes for unorganised workers and small and marginal farmers. The presentation also outlined the registration figures and the role of various stakeholder departments in improving coverage.
The Deputy Commissioner reviewed the performance of line departments and field functionaries and highlighted the gap between potential beneficiaries and enrolments. He stressed the need for aggressive outreach, coordinated efforts and targeted mobilisation, particularly among unorganised workers, MGNREGA workers, small farmers and other eligible groups.
Dr. Qayoom further apprised the house that Tehsil-level Sub-Committees have already been constituted to ensure effective implementation of financial inclusion schemes across the district and directed all concerned officers to ensure that these committees become fully functional at the ground level and conduct regular enrolment drives, awareness camps and beneficiary facilitation activities in their respective jurisdictions.
The DC instructed Tehsildars and departmental officers to work in close coordination with CSCs, Panchayati Raj Institutions and field staff of various departments to identify eligible beneficiaries, remove bottlenecks in registration and ensure timely enrolment under the schemes. He further emphasized that special focus must be laid on left-out and vulnerable sections to ensure inclusive coverage.
The meeting was attended by Chief Planning Officer, Pulwama; District Programme Officer, ICDS, Pulwama; along with officers and representatives from Social Welfare, Labour, Agriculture, Rural Development, Revenue, Education, Health, Municipal Committees, CSCs and other stakeholder departments.
