In this era of digitization, the digital world is presenting a new opportunity in front of all of us every hour. In such a situation, every skilled person is hoping to convert his skills into a big employment opportunity on the digital platform. On the other hand, there is the consumer class who is looking for people who are working as Electrician, Beautician, Plumber, AC Mechanic, Computer Mechanic and Carpenter etc. The ambitious ‘Seva Mitra’ scheme has been launched by the Uttar Pradesh government to connect such skilled workers and needy consumers on a digital platform.
Seva Mitra is a digital platform started with the motto “Sabko Hunar, Sabko Kaam”. This digital platform is being operated with the joint efforts of Uttar Pradesh Labor and Employment Department and Vocational Education and Skill Development Department. The objective of this ambitious scheme of the Uttar Pradesh government is to provide employment at the local level by certifying the employment of people providing daily domestic services like electrician, carpenter, beautician, cook, plumber, driver, nursing. Apart from this, facilities like painting, house-building, catering have also been included in this. To take advantage of the Seva Mitra digital platform, workers have to register themselves on the portal of sewamitra.up.gov.in or on the Seva Mitra app available on the Play Store.
Such consumers who want to avail authentic services at a discounted rate can book the service from the Seva Mitra app, from the portal or by calling the helpline number 155330. This helpline service is available from Monday to Saturday between 9:30 am to 6:30 pm. Because the Seva Mitra app is GPS based, it is also easy for both the worker and the consumer to find each other instantly.
Realizing the concept of self-reliant India, this mission of the state government is going to save time, money and energy of techno friendly young generation. It is also a testimony to the government’s commitment to make digital platforms an employment opportunity for the youth. It is such a bridge between workers and consumers that along with employment, it is providing authentic services to the citizens at affordable rates.
Thus the Seva Mitra digital platform is providing continuous employment to the unorganized working class in both urban and rural areas. Also, consumers seeking quality, authentic home services are getting assured listed services in one click. In true sense, Seva Mitra Suvidha is giving a new flight to the dream of Digital India, Self-reliant India and New India.
