JAMMU: Dogra Sewa Sambhal Trust organised an awareness camp for workers associated with the unorganised sector at Gangyal in Jammu city. Former Deputy Mayor Jammu Baldev Singh Billawaria was mainly present on the occasion. During the program, Billawaria distributed tool kits to the workers and informed them about the public welfare schemes of the government.

Speaking on the occasion, Billawaria said that this initiative will provide significant assistance to the youth from economically weaker backgrounds who aspire to achieve success through hard work and dedication. He further said that the tool kit will help individuals to set up their own business. He also informed that the aim of the trust is not only to provide tool kits but also to empower the youth to become self-reliant.

He said that the tool kit was provided to those who have received technical training, so that they can use their skills for independent work.

In this scheme, workers from 18 to 40 years of age from the unorganized sector can apply.
