T.N. government to consider providing identity cards to inter-State migrant labourers: Minister
The Tamil Nadu government will consider a request to provide identity cards to inter-State migrant labourers employed in the State, Minister for Labour Welfare and Skill Development C.V. Ganesan said in the Assembly on Monday (April 28, 2025).
Responding to concerns raised by Panruti MLA T. Velmurugan in the House, the Minister said that the State government would consider the request for providing identity cards to inter-State migrant labourers employed in Tamil Nadu.
During his speech, Mr. Velmurugan sought a permit for inter-State migrant labourers, similar to the ‘State Entry Line Permit’ granted to those visiting some northeastern States.
In his response, the Minister said that district-level authorities and owners of shops and establishments were registering the movements of migrant labourers.
