Advisor to Governor Khursheed Ahmed Ganai launched the departmental portal here Tuesday before taking a review of the performance of its different wings, he said.
The portal will provide 31 services online, including benefits under various welfare schemes for the workers, payment of various kinds of fee and information about labour laws and rules, he said.
