Registration Of Unorganised Workers Too Slow
India has never been able to record its workforce in the unorganised sector, and therefore there has been no question of providing them social security. They greatly suffered during COVID-19 lockdown and containment measures despite Modi government’s big assurances that never reached the ground, attracting bitter national and international criticism. The Centre promised to register all of them, but the e-shram portal for registration could be launched only on August 26, 2021, that too after the stern stand of the Supreme Court of India. However, the registration is too slow on account of numerous hurdles. The portal had announced the capacity of registering all 38 crore of unorganised workforcein six categories – construction workers, migrant workers, gig and platform workers, domestic workers, and other unorganised workers. As on October 8, only 3.01 crore wereregistered. The unorganised workers are finding difficulties in fulfilling even the eligibilitycriteria and providing the documents required for registration.Registration on this portal is important for unorganised workers, because they can get thebenefit of several social security schemes of the Centre and the states only after registration.Apart from social security scheme benefits, they will also be able to get financial support,more job opportunity, premium waiver for one year, and Bima Yojna Insurance cover. Government will then also be able to track migrant workforce. Therefore, it is of paramountimportance for the country to register all the unorganised workers as soon as possible.As the registration is going on, the pattern is revealing several other important aspects. Forexample, migrant workers’ registration is still very low at 2.77 per cent, though they were theworst sufferers during the pandemic when the country was put under lockdown on March 24,2020. They suffered the most during the entire period of the first and the second wave.There seems to be no end to their woes in sight in the near future, unless the level of theirregistration is facilitated through other means by giving relaxation in eligibility criteria and thedocuments required. If they don’t have documents, the country should provide them becauseit is their right.The mode of registration seems to have problems. There are three modes of registration –CSC (common service centre), self, and the State Seva Kendra. It is shocking to known thatthe State Seva Kendras are not functioning, and all the registrations are being made eitherthrough CSC or self whose share are 75.44 per cent and 24.56 per cent respectively.Among the registered, 51.16 per cent are males, 48.84 per cent females, and there are notransgenders. Majority of the registered, 62.32 per cent are of the age group 1840. Age group 40-50 is thesecond largest constituting 21.99 per cent. Workers in the age group above 50 are 12.21 percent, while 3.48 per cent workers are between 16 and 18 years of age. OBCs constitute the majority of the registered unorganized workforce who are 43.06 percent. Next come the people of the general social category. They are 27.13 per cent.Scheduled caste are 22.93 per cent while the Scheduled Tribes are 6.88 per cent.Unavailability of nominee details for 30.35 per cent of the unorganised workers is a matter ofconcern, since certain social security benefits are given to the survivors after the death of theperson in question. It means, in case of death, the dependent of the unorganised workerwould not get the benefit of the schemes like Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojna(PMJJBY) and Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojna (PMSBY). It is noteworthy thatPMJJPY envisages that on death due to any reason, Rs 2 lakh would be provided to thebeneficiary’s nominee. A similar provision is also envisaged under PMSBY. The system has revealed that despite millions of accounts have been opened in banks underModi’s flagship programme called Jan Dhan Yojna, millions of workers in unorganised sectordid not have access to any bank account. Consequently, 33.51 per cent of the registeredunorganised workers had no bank account details in the e-shram portal. Moreover, 55.77 percent of them have no Aadhaar linked bank accounts. This anomaly is going to hamper thedirect benefit transfer (DBT) system being implemented by the Centre and states, and evenmillions of registered unorganised worker could not get its benefit. - Kapilkumar M.

Ranbir Kapoor takes horse riding lessons for Shamshera To perfect his act for the period drama, the actor underwent a few days training in horse riding Agency News: Mumbai To perfect their act for a movie, many actor undergo some kind of training before the filming begins. Some movies, like historical and period dramas, require the actor to have a certain skill set. For example, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan learnt sword fighting for Jodhaa Akbar, Shahid Kapoor took sword fighting and horse riding lessons for Padmaavat and Vicky Kaushal was taking horse riding lessons for the now-stalled The Immortal Ashwatthama. It is now learnt that Ranbir Kapoor too is taking horse riding lessons for his upcoming film, Shamshera. “Ranbir has done some horse riding for fun with Alia Bhatt. But for the movie, he had to take proper lessons. Ranbir has a double role in the film as Shamshera and Balli. He has some confrontational scenes with Shuddh Singh (played by Sanjay Dutt) and fight scenes on horseback for which one needs to be better trained as a rider. Hence, Ranbir took a few days of training to perfect his act for the scenes and be safe as well. Around 80 horses were used in the fight sequence and Ranbir managed to shoot them with ease,” says a source.

AI privatisation heralds end to taxpayer-fuelled ops; deleterious effect on industry fares, salaries Agency News: New Delhi When full-service airline Jet Airways wound up operations in April 2019, it was a result of several triggers coming to boil — systemic factors like surging crude prices and an adverse foreign exchange rate; reasons relating to industry’s evolution like growth of low-cost flying, in addition to poor decision making by Jet Airways’ management and promoters.

Piyush Goyal urges Asean to remove barriers, curb misuse of FTAs Trade minister Piyush Goyal also called upon Asean to allow reciprocal FTA concessions to import from India to correct the trade imbalance in favour of Asean.
Agency News: New Delhi Trade minister Piyush Goyal on Friday called upon the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) to do away with non-tariff barriers (NTBs) and curb the misuse of free trade agreements (FTAs) by third parties, often outside the region.“It is unfortunate” that recently “we had to deal with several restrictive barriers on our exports to Asean, particularly in agriculture and auto. I think this only results in
reciprocal action from other countries, including India and will hurt the long-term desire of our leaders to expand trade between the two countries,” Goyal said at a special plenary with trade ministers of the region organized by the Confederation of Indian Industry. Goyal also called upon Asean to allow reciprocal FTA concessions to import from India to correct the trade imbalance in favour of Asean. “India has been witnessing exponential growth in imports from Asean, while our exports have been impeded by nonreciprocity in FTA concessions, NTBs, import regulations, quotas and export taxes from Asean.
Jet and other Indian airlines had to contend against an airline that constantly had its losses subsidised. This had a deleterious effect of fares and salary benchmarks in the industry. Air India’s privitisation marks a break from this trend.From an upstart that spurred flyer growth in India to an ailing white elephant that dragged the entire sector along with itself to an extent.
