Chandigarh, December 3

The Haryana Labour Department is registering workers enrolled in unorganised sectors by holding camps under the e-SHRAM scheme.

Under the scheme, accident insurance up to Rs 2 lakh for a registered worker will be free and in case of permanent amputation, he will be given aid up to Rs 1 lakh.

Giving information in this regard today, a spokesperson said those working in unorganised sectors and self-employed workers, like construction workers, agricultural labourers, daily wage labourers, carpenters, migrant labourers, MNREGA workers, auto-drivers, ASHA and anganwadi workers, domestic help, milk sellers, electricians and street vendors, rickshaw drivers, vegetable vendors, artisans, weavers, plumbers and mid-day meal workers, would benefit from e-SHRAM. He said the age of the worker should be between 16 and 59 years.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
