Task force moots mobile app for registration of migrant workers
BHUBANESWAR: Deputy chief minister KV Singh Deo on Monday called for long-term measures within the existing development initiatives to create livelihood opportunities with better wage employment to check migration from the state. Chairing the first meeting of the task force on distress migration here, Singh Deo said while lack of local employment alternatives is cited as the primary reason behind migration, most of the migrant workers belong to the marginalised communities and are illiterate. Exploitation of migrant workers could be checked to a great extent if they registered themselves with the district labour offices and the labour contractors who send them outside the state have valid licence. Among others, deputy chief minister Pravati Parida, Panchayati Raj minister Rabi Naik, Forest minister Ganesh Ram Singhkhuntia, Fisheries and Animal Resources Development minister Gokulananda Mallik and Industries minister Sampad Swain participated in the meeting.
