In a program organized at his official residence, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that the workers have played an important role in making the state self-reliant with their hard work and effort. In the continuous war against Corona for the last one and a half years, the workers have always fought it shoulder to shoulder with the government. The challenge was greater due to the lockdown announced last year due to the first wave of infections. More than 40 lakh migrant workers had come to Uttar Pradesh, the government made arrangements for their maintenance and employment. All the institutes of the world are researching this successful model of UP. Taking care of the interests of the workers, we were able to overcome the first wave of Corona.
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that the government has constituted a commission in the state to provide social security to the workers and to take care of their interests. During the second wave of corona infection, big and small industries continued to run in the state, the work of farming continued. We didn't even let the construction work stop. By setting up COVID Care Centers and COVID Help Desks in industrial units and factories, we worked to keep all workers safe.
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath reiterated that the government will guarantee social security of Rs 2 lakh to all workers in the organized and unorganized sector within the state by registering them. This work has started. Similarly, by registering every worker, the government is also committed to providing them health insurance cover of up to Rs 5 lakh.
Targeting the previous governments, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that before the year 2017, ration cards of poor laborers were not made. Ration cards were made only for the families belonging to the ruling party. We provided ration cards to all the poor laborers by running a campaign. In his speech, he did not fail to warn the workers that the corona infection has weakened but has not ended. So take precautions and take the necessary steps to prevent corona.
On this occasion, the Chief Minister also launched the portal for registration of workers in the unorganized sector in the Uttar Pradesh State Social Security Board. He also interacted with some workers through video conferencing.
