Guv, Union Minister launches PM-SYM scheme in Jammu

JAMMU: Governor Satya Pal Malik and Union Minister Jitendra Singh on Tuesday launched the Pradhan Mantri Shram Yogi Maan-dhan (PM-SYM) scheme, a pension scheme for unorganised sector, at a function here.

Lauding the initiative of the Union Government in conceptualising this scheme, Malik described it as a significant step towards benefiting the workers in the country’s unorganised sector.

The Governor, on the occasion, announced that the first month installment on behalf of registered beneficiaries would be contributed by the State Government.

Noting that the scheme has been launched with the highly-laudable objective of providing social security coverage to labourers and workers in the unorganised sector, Malik said his administration would make the best possible effort to ensure that benefit of the newly-launched scheme reaches every eligible beneficiary in the State.
