What this is

The objective of the scheme is to facilitate the payment of railway fares for migrant labourers employed in the organized sector in Gujarat, enabling them to travel to or from their home country to the nearest railway station.

In detail

The “Shramyogi Home Town Scheme” is implemented by the Gujarat Labour Welfare Board, Labour, Skill Development & Employment Department, Government of Gujarat.

Hence, the plan for a labourer to visit his hometown once in two years.

  • A Shram Yogi shall travel only after obtaining prior approval by applying prior to travel.
