520 _aThe Ministry of Labour and Employment launched the e-Shram portal to create a national database of unorganised workers, including migrants. Since its launch, the e-Shram portal has functioned merely as a “registration drive” for workers. The “one-stop solution” has been introduced to facilitate seamless access to social security schemes for e-Shram registrants. While this is a significant step, technical glitches, difficulties in registration due to limited digital literacy, language barriers, migratory status and inadequate outreach to migrant communities hinder its effective utilisation. – Reproduced https://www.epw.in/journal/2025/32/commentary/e-shram-portal.html
