New Delhi, Nov 29: In order to safeguard the rights of migrant workers, the government said on Wednesday that it will require all building and construction workers nationwide to have a unique identity. Benefits portability will be facilitated by this identity, which will be connected to Aadhaar and incorporated into the e-Shram database. Labour Secretary Arti Ahuja stated that the family's entitlements should be available regardless of whether someone is in Delhi today or Mumbai tomorrow. The senior official said this while speaking at "The Migration Conclave," which was held in the nation's capital and was sponsored by the International Labour Organisation (ILO) and the All India Organisation of Employers (AIOE and FICCI). These revisions will be fully explained in the future addendum, which is anticipated to be presented within the next week.Ahuja talked about the difficulties brought about by the growing usage of contractors to seek unregistered labour abroad. According to the Interstate Migrant Workmen Act, contractors will have to offer these workers full benefits under the four labour codes. These include access to basic amenities like restrooms and worksite childcare, minimum salaries, and occupational safety. According to Ahuja, the ministry also intends to put policies in place that guarantee proper housing, hygienic conditions, and knowledge of one's rights in these areas.In order to address the unique issues of migrant workers inside industries, she also stressed the significance of a tripartite process involving workers' organisations. The International worker Organization's (ILO) Deputy Director, Satoshi Sasaki, emphasised the importance of worker migration in the present and future labour markets. He emphasised the chances and difficulties faced by migratory workers, which are made worse by the Covid-19 pandemic's effects on access to respectable employment.

KERALA: Rahul Gandhi, the head of the Congress, stated on Wednesday that certain politicians are "too smart" to hide their genuine wealth from the public eye and hence cannot be assessed by their modesty or less expensive watches. At the book presentation here for the late Muslim League leader P Seethi Haji, Gandhi stated that one can tell a lot about a politician's actual character by looking at their offspring. You are aware that the politicians I encounter are intelligent individuals. Politicians of today will only display the things that they deem appropriate.There are occasions when individuals come to see me with worn shoes, basic attire, and no fancy watches. They drive enormous BMWs when you visit their houses. These men are too intelligent. They are aware of your search," declared Gandhi. Politicians, he claimed, might conceal elements of their personalities with clothes and accessories, but "the truth cannot be hidden when it comes to their children." He claimed that as a result, he had to devise a new technique to swiftly and correctly assess these people. The former head of Congress claimed to have spent almost eighteen years in the political arena, engaging with various types of politicians, before developing this "bulletproof" method of assessing or rating people. "It took me eighteen years to discover a foolproof method that would make it hard for anyone to conceal the truth about who they really are. I request that they give their kids to me. "The truth cannot be concealed from the children," declared Gandhi following the publication of the book "Speeches of Late P Seethi Haji in the Kerala Legislative Assembly." Haji led the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) and served as the 9th Kerala Legislative Assembly's main whip for the administration. Although Gandhi had never met Haji, he claimed that he could tell a lot about the late IUML leader's character just by glancing at his son, P K Basheer. "This is what I'm saying since Basheer bears his father's stamp. So, just by looking at him, I can identify his father. Nothing is concealable," he declared. Gandhi stated that he observed Basheer to be both personable and approachable during the 2019 local elections. The Wayanad Congress MP also stated in his address that a person "cannot be a leader" if they lack humility and the ability to look inward. He claimed that by listening to the other leaders at the event speak, he was able to comprehend that Haji was a self-reflective individual who could laugh at himself and not take himself too seriously.

NOV 29, 2023 : Between October 2022 and September 2023, the US Embassy and its consulates in India issued an unprecedented number of student visas—more than 140,000. The US State Department said on Tuesday, "Our embassy and consulates in India issued an all-time record of more than 140,000 student visas." The State Department of the United States said, "From October 2022 through September 2023 (the 2023 federal fiscal year), the Department of State issued a near-record level of nonimmigrant visas of more than 10 million globally." There were more nonimmigrant visa decisions made by half of the US embassies and consulates than ever before. Furthermore, the statement stated that the US embassy had given around eight million business and tourist visitor visas—more than in any previous fiscal year since 2015. The statement went on to say that these accomplishments were made possible by creative solutions, like extending the authority for interview waivers, which let regular travellers who fulfil stringent national security requirements renew their visas without needing to go to an embassy or consulate. "Looking to the future, we are exploring new technologies to assess opportunities to streamline operations, such as the option of domestic renewal in select visa categories," it continued. The US Mission to India exceeded its target last month, handling one million non-immigrant visa applications by the year 2023. In a statement, the US Embassy and Consulates in India stated that over 1.2 million Indians travelled to the US last year, making it one of the most robust travel partnerships in the world. Currently, more than 10% of all visa applicants globally are Indian, with 20% of all student visa applicants and 65% of all H&L-category (work) visa applicants being Indian. The statement continued, "The United States welcomes this growth." In the meantime, US Ambassador to India Eric Garcetti paid a visit to the US embassy in the country's capital earlier this month to supervise the "unprecedented demand" among Indians for US visitor visas. 'Super Saturday' saw Garcetti as the special guest assisting the additional visa applications, according to the US Embassy.
