|New Delhi 10March2025
To ensure effective execution, the panel has been divided into two specialised teams
NEW DELHI: In a significant step towards fulfilling its election promises, the Delhi government has set up a committee to develop and implement welfare schemes for gig workers in the national Capital.
The panel, chaired by Sunil K Gupta, will focus on creating a digital platform for worker registration and ensuring smooth coordination with various gig economy platforms.
This initiative aligns with the BJP's commitment to providing social security for gig workers, including delivery personnel, which was a key part of its election manifesto.
During the campaign, the party had promised measures such as life insurance coverage of ₹10 lakh and accidental insurance of ₹25 lakh for workers in the sector.
