Haryana Labour Minister Anil Vij has requested Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini to order an investigation into alleged anomalies in the registration of construction workers. A preliminary inquiry suggests a potential Rs 1,500-crore scam involving fake registrations to avail government scheme benefits. Irregularities were found in at least six districts, prompting the formation of district-level committees to conduct physical verification of work slips issued between August 2023 and March 2025.
