Union Minister of State for Commerce and Industries E M Sudarsana Natchiappan today said, "Under the new scheme, the workers could collect the money from the nearest bank."
Presently, in each district one bank had been chosen for depositing the wages under the scheme, but people found it difficult to withdraw the money as the bank was situated far away.
He said the Central government had granted Rs 100 crore for various development works, including Spices Park, in Sivaganga district.
