The Ministry of Coal launched the C CARES Version 2.0 portal to enhance the welfare of coal workers by streamlining provident fund (PF) and pension disbursements. Developed by the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC), the portal enables real-time tracking of claims, significantly reducing settlement times. This initiative aims to improve social security benefits for coal workers by providing faster and more transparent access to their financial entitlements, reflecting the government’s focus on welfare and efficiency in managing workers’ benefits.
