The Labour and Employees’ State Insurance Department has been included in the Mo Sarkar initiative. Announcing this, Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik expressed confidence that under Mo Sarkar, every worker coming to a public office would definitely return with a happy memory.
"Our flagship programme the Nirman Shramik Kalyan Yojana has been guided by this philosophy to provide a kind of social security blanket to the workers. It has catered to the requirements of millions of labourers with various kinds of supports including education, marriage, and maternity," the CM told.
Labour and ESI Minister Susant Singh expressed hope that the initiative will make the welfare schemes more efficient and labour friendly.
Chief Secretary Asit Tripathy said that Mo Sarkar had exposed Government employees to tighter scrutiny. The Government is getting very good feedback from the beneficiaries and the general public, he told. 5-T Secretary VK Pandian interacted with District Labour Officers of Nuapada, Bargarh, Sambalpur, Jagatsinghpur, Gajapati and Kalahandi. The Factories and Boilers Department must also work in this direction, he told.
