GoI unveils PMVBRY with focus on job creation, manufacturing growth
Srinagar, Jun 18: The Government of India has launched the Pradhan Mantri Viksit Bharat Rojgar Yojana (PMVBRY), formerly known as the Employment Linked Incentive (ELI) Scheme to promote employment generation, enhancing employability, and expanding social security coverage across all sectors of the economy, with a special emphasis on the manufacturing sector. Under the Scheme, while the first-time employees will get one months wage (up to Rs 15,000/-), the employers will be given incentives for a period to two years for generating additional employment, with extended benefits for another two years for the manufacturing sector. With a total outlay of 99,446 crore, PMVBRY aims to facilitate the creation of over 3.5 crore jobs across the country over a period of two years. Out of these, approximately 1.92 crore beneficiaries are expected to be first-time entrants into the formal workforce. The benefits under the Scheme are applicable to jobs created between 1 August 2025 and 31 July 2027. The Scheme comprises two components: Part A Incentive to First-Time Employees: Under this component, first-time employees registered with EPFO and earning wages up to 1 lakh per month are eligible to receive an incentive equivalent to one months wage, up to a maximum of 15,000, in two instalments. The first instalment is payable after completion of six months of continuous service, while the second instalment is payable after twelve months of service and completion of a financial literacy programme. A portion of the incentive is retained in a savings instrument/deposit account for a fixed period to encourage long-term savings habits among young workers. Part B Support to Employers: This component incentivizes employers for generating additional employment across all sectors. Employers will receive incentives of up to 3,000 per month per additional employee for a period of two years, provided the employee remains in sustained employment for at least six months. For the manufacturing sector, these incentives are extended for an additional two years, covering the third and fourth years as well. To qualify, EPFO-registered establishments must recruit at least two additional employees (for establishments with fewer than 50 employees) or five additional employees (for establishments with 50 or more employees). All payments to first-time employees under Part A are made through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) using the Aadhaar Bridge Payment System (ABPS), while incentives to employers under Part B are credited directly to their PAN-linked bank accounts. The PMVBRY Scheme is expected to catalyse job creation, particularly in the manufacturing sector, while encouraging youth participation in the formal workforce. The Scheme will also contribute substantially towards the formalization of employment and the expansion of social security coverage among millions of workers across the country. To mark the successful implementation of the Scheme, a National-Level PMVBRY Event will be held under the gracious presence of the Honble Prime Minister of India on 19 June 2026 at Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi. During the event, benefits amounting to approximately 2400 crore corresponding to additional employment of more than 15 lakhs will be disbursed to eligible beneficiaries under the Scheme. The PMVBRY Scheme has already demonstrated significant early success in promoting formal employment and supporting both workers and employers. In March 2026, benefits amounting to 247 crore were disbursed under Part A of the Scheme to 4.41 lakh first-time employees, providing direct financial support to young workers entering the formal workforce. Under Part B, incentives worth 214 crore were released to 17,551 establishments that generated additional employment of approximately 6.46 lakh workers. Under Part A, nearly 65% of beneficiaries belong to the 2035 years age group, with 51.18% in the 1825 years bracket, highlighting the schemes success in supporting first-time job seekers and young workers entering the formal workforce. Women account for 35.33% of beneficiaries under Part A and over 24% under Part B, reflecting the schemes contribution to strengthening female workforce participation. Employment generation has been broad-based, spanning sectors such as expert services, manufacturing, engineering, trading and technology, while Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Telangana and Delhi/Gujarat have emerged among the leading beneficiary States. Importantly, more than 80% of incentivised beneficiaries under Part B are employed in establishments with fewer than 25 workers, underscoring the schemes role in supporting small enterprises and fostering inclusive job creation across the country. Simultaneously, regional-level events at around 200 locations across India, particularly in major industrial and employment clusters, will be organized. These events will witness the participation of employers, employees, industry representatives, and other stakeholders.

Jammu, June 18, 2026: In a significant boost for fruit growers in Jammu & Kashmir, Northern Railway's Jammu Division has achieved a record milestone in the transportation of perishable fruits during the 2026 harvest season, facilitating the dispatch of approximately 250 tonnes of cherries and 10 tonnes of litchis to major markets across the country. According to railway officials, around 250 tonnes of cherries were loaded from Jammu Tawi Railway Station and transported to key metropolitan markets including Mumbai, Vadodara and Surat. Additionally, nearly 10 tonnes of litchis were dispatched from Pathankot Cantt Railway Station to Mumbai, Ahmedabad and Surat. The initiative is aimed at providing fruit growers with faster, more economical, and reliable access to distant markets. Railway authorities stated that the use of dedicated parcel wagons and streamlined loading and unloading arrangements has helped ensure the timely movement of highly perishable produce. Agriculture and trade stakeholders note that improved rail connectivity can reduce dependence on intermediaries, potentially enabling growers to secure better market prices. Rail transportation is also considered a cost-effective alternative to road transport, helping lower logistics expenses and improve returns for producers. The faster transit time has emerged as another key advantage. By reducing travel duration, fruits can reach consumers while retaining freshness, thereby minimizing post-harvest losses and spoilage. Industry observers believe that improved access to markets in Maharashtra and Gujarat has contributed to growing demand for cherries and litchis originating from Jammu & Kashmir. Commenting on the achievement, Uchit Singhal, Senior Divisional Commercial Manager, Jammu Division, said that the division remains committed to supporting fruit growers through efficient freight services. We have arranged special parcel wagons and expedited handling facilities for perishable commodities such as cherries and litchis. Our objective is to ensure that the produce of Jammu & Kashmir reaches markets across the country in a timely and cost-effective manner. This initiative supports growers by reducing transportation costs and improving market access, he said. He further noted that rail transport can be significantly more economical than road transport while helping preserve the freshness of fruits during transit. Railway officials have assured growers that freight-related support and infrastructure facilitation will continue in the coming seasons to strengthen the region's horticulture supply chain and expand access to national markets. The achievement highlights the growing role of rail logistics in supporting agricultural commerce and enhancing market opportunities for fruit growers in Jammu & Kashmir.This version is written in a professional newspaper style suitable for publication in a national or regional daily, with balanced reporting, attribution of claims, and adherence to journalistic ethics.
