Chhattisgarh Asangathit Karmkaar Mrityu Evam Divyang Sahayata Yojana

Scheme Introduction: A Brief Overview

For lakhs of families in Chhattisgarh, a single day's wage is what keeps the kitchen running. When the earning member of such a family dies or is left permanently disabled, the loss is not only emotional - it can push an entire household into a financial crisis overnight. The Chhattisgarh Asangathit Karmkaar Mrityu Evam Divyang Sahayata Yojana is the Chhattisgarh government's answer to exactly this situation: a death and disability assistance scheme for unorganised workers run by the Chhattisgarh Unorganised Workers' State Social Security Board under the Labour Department. In simple terms, this unorganised worker welfare scheme gives a lump-sum cash payout to a registered worker's family in the event of natural death and to the worker directly in the case of permanent disability - a registered worker's nominee receives ₹1,00,000 (one lakh rupees) on natural death, while a worker who becomes permanently disabled receives ₹50,000.

The scheme is meant only for unorganised sector workers - daily-wage labourers, street vendors, rickshaw and e-rickshaw pullers, domestic workers, farm labourers, and similar occupations- who are registered with the Board, and not for construction workers, who are covered by a separate Nirman Shramik scheme. To be eligible, the applicant must be a permanent resident of Chhattisgarh, aged between 18 and 60 years, and must hold a valid registration (labour) card with active status.

The application can be made online through the official Shramev Jayate portal (shramevjayate.cg.gov.in) or offline at the local Labour Office, Shram Seva Kendra, or a Common Service Centre (CSC). Once approved, the amount is paid straight to the worker's bank account through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT). One condition to keep in mind is the time limit- under the Chhattisgarh Asangathit Karmkaar Mrityu Evam Divyang Sahayata Scheme, an application will be accepted only within 90 days of the worker's death or permanent disability, so families should not delay in filing.

Following the Board's July 2026 review meeting, the department has moved to faster claim settlement and mandatory Aadhaar-based e-KYC, so applying with fully updated and matching documents is now more important than ever. The sections below break down the benefits, who qualifies, the documents you need, and the exact online and offline steps to claim the money under this Chhattisgarh labour card death and disability scheme.

Scheme Benefits

• The financial support under the CG Asangathit Karmkaar Mrityu Evam Divyang Sahayata Scheme is straightforward and paid as a one-time lump sum.
• Natural death of a registered worker: ₹1,00,000 (one lakh) paid to the registered nominee or legal heir.
  Permanent disability of a registered worker: ₹50,000 paid directly to the worker.
• The payout is transferred through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) into the bank account of the nominee (for death claims), or the worker (for disability claims), so a working, Aadhaar-linked bank account is essential.
• The benefit is a social-security cushion, not an insurance premium product- the worker does not pay a premium; registration with the Board is what activates eligibility.
• Assistance is generally not payable where death results from causes the Board excludes under its rules (for example, suicide or intoxication-related death), so claims should be supported with proper medical and death documentation.
