Citing the ILO World Social Security Report 2024-26, Union Minister for Labour and Employment Mansukh Mandaviya highlighted the progress made in expanding social security benefits across the workforce. He emphasized the government’s commitment to skilling and empowering India’s youth, ensuring that their talent makes a global impact.
