11 years of PM Modi Government: Labour Ministry drives transformation in social security and welfare

EPFO, ESIC hospitals, and DGLW showcase Modi govt's 11-year transformation in social security, healthcare, and worker welfare.

"98% of Pension on Higher Wages claims implemented – Labour Ministry release"

New Delhi, June 11

As the Government of India marks 11 years of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, the Ministry of Labour and Employment highlights its key achievements in labour welfare, social security, and public healthcare.

According to a release from the Ministry of Labour and Employment, three premier institutions in Hyderabad exemplify this transformation. The EPFO Regional Office, Barkatpura, has set new standards in service delivery through digital innovations, speedy claim settlements, and effective grievance redressal. With over 27 lakh accounts managed and 98 per cent of Pension on Higher Wages claims implemented, it stands as a national model of efficiency.

At Sanath Nagar, the ESIC Medical College and Super Speciality Hospital has emerged as a leader in public healthcare and medical education. Equipped with over 1,000 beds and advanced diagnostics, the campus serves more than 72 lakh beneficiaries with IT-enabled, patient-centric services.

Meanwhile, the Directorate General of Labour Welfare (DGLW) continues to uplift over 50 lakh unorganised workers through educational scholarships, healthcare assistance, and social protection, particularly in the Beedi, Cine, and mining sectors, the release added.

To provide an in-depth, ground-level understanding of these success stories, the Ministry is organising a Press Tour to Hyderabad from 11th - 14th June 2025. Journalists will have the opportunity to interact directly with officials, beneficiaries, and frontline service providers. Through guided walkthroughs, live demonstrations, and presentations, media representatives will witness how 11 years of focused governance have resulted in tangible, people-centric outcomes in the labour sector, the release added.

The EPFO reforms have been a game-changer! My father's pension processing which used to take 4-5 months now gets cleared in weeks. Digital India is showing real results in labour welfare. More power to Team Modi! 🇮🇳

While the achievements are impressive, I wish they'd focus more on informal sector workers beyond Beedi/Cine industries. My maid still struggles to access any social security benefits. The schemes need wider reach.

ESIC hospital in Hyderabad is truly world-class! Got my mother treated there last year - the facilities rival private hospitals but at fraction of cost. This is what 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas' looks like on ground.

As a teacher, I've seen how DGLW scholarships have transformed lives of workers' children in our school. But implementation varies state to state - some regions need more attention. Overall good progress though!

The press tour initiative is brilliant! More transparency in governance please. Hope journalists ask tough questions too - like why some labour codes are still pending after 11 years? Balance praise with accountability.

My husband works in mining sector and the healthcare assistance has been lifesaving for his colleagues. But wish they'd expand coverage to include mental health services too - these workers face tremendous stress. Still, good work! 👍
