Imphal, Nov 12 (PTI) Union Minister Rameswar Teli on Friday distributed e-Shram registration cards among 30 unorganised workers in Manipur and asserted that the state will touch "new heights of achievement" with proper implementation of this scheme, an official statement here said.

Addressing a gathering, Teli said that around 7.30 crore workers and labourers across the country have registered their names on the eSHRAM portal.

A target of 8.65 lakh registrations has been set for Manipur, the Union minister of state for labour and employment stated.
