New Delhi, Sept. 22 -- Chief Minister Rekha Gupta on Tuesday flagged off four 'Mobile Namo Shramik Seva Kendra Vans' from the Delhi Secretariat under the government's Seva Sankalp Abhiyan, aimed at taking labour-related registration and welfare services directly to workers.
The mobile centres will provide on-the-spot registration and renewal, assistance with documents, information on government schemes and access to digital services. The initiative is intended to reduce workers' visits to government offices and prevent loss of daily wages while accessing services.
"Workers are the foundation of Delhi's development. Now, services will reach their doorstep instead of them having to visit offices," Gupta said.
The government said the vans will visit labour chowks, construction sites and other locations where workers are employed. While four vans were flagged off on Tuesday, the initiative envisages one mobile van for each of Delhi's 13 districts.
The mobile centres will help new workers register and existing workers renew their registration, besides providing information on eligibility, application procedures and documents required for various welfare schemes.
Labour Minister Kapil Mishra said the initiative would help address gaps in registration and awareness among workers.
"No worker in Delhi will remain deprived of government schemes due to lack of information or registration," Mishra said.
The government said the vans would function as multi-purpose service centres, helping workers with registration, renewals and applications for welfare schemes near their workplaces. The initiative also includes attention to rest areas and essential facilities for gig workers, with the government stating that the mobile outreach model will make labour services more accessible across Delhi.
