Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has announced two schemes for the laborers of the state. In the first, an insurance cover of Rs 2 lakh will be given to all laborers for accidental death or disability. A health insurance cover of Rs 5 lakh will also be given to them.
Yogi said that in the midst of the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic, the government was going to restart the distribution of free ration under the PM Garib Kalyan Yojana from May 5.
He said that in 2020, the government had not just given free ration to laborers but also a bharan poshan bhatta or allowance. Around 54 lakh laborers had benefited from the financial assistance. More than 40 lakh migrant workers who returned to the state were also given benefits.
