The government has officially launched the much-anticipated ‘Pradhan Mantri Viksit Bharat Rozgar Yojana’ (PMVBRY) portal to boost employment across the country. Announcing the launch on Monday, Union Minister Mansukh Mandaviya called upon employers and first-time job seekers to make the most of this major initiative, which carries a massive allocation of nearly Rs 1 lakh crore. The Union Cabinet had earlier given its nod to the Employment Linked Incentive Scheme on July 1, 2025. Designed as a central sector programme, the PMVBRY seeks to create over 3.5 crore employment opportunities within a span of two years. According to the Union Minister of Labour and Employment, the scheme will be operative from August 1, 2025, to July 31, 2027.
