KISHTWAR: Under the directions of the Deputy Commissioner, Kishtwar, Pankaj Kumar Sharma, the Labour Department, Kishtwar, under the leadership of Assistant Labour Commissioner, Mamta Sudershan, organized a sensitization meeting with members of local Traders’ Associations, today.
The meeting was aimed at generating awareness about the Pradhan Mantri Shram Yogi Maandhan Yojana (PM-SYM), a flagship social security scheme of the Government of India for unorganized workers. The traders were briefed in detail about the objectives, eligibility criteria and long-term benefits of the scheme, particularly its provision of providing old-age social security.
It was emphasized that the primary objective is to ensure that all workers engaged in shops and commercial establishments become part of this social security network and avail its benefits. Clear directions were issued to ensure the registration of eligible workers in the 18–40 years age group under the scheme.
The Common Service Centres (CSCs) were directed to ensure maximum registrations by extending full cooperation to the workers. To facilitate easy access, CSCs were instructed to organize one-day registration drives at nearby locations, enabling workers to enroll conveniently and receive the intended benefits of the scheme.
The initiative was appreciated by the members of the Traders’ Associations, who assured full cooperation in mobilizing workers and spreading awareness about the scheme at the grassroots level.
