REMINDER 

Dear all, 

Vide our earlier email dtd: 06.12.2016 regarding “Cashless Dadra & Nagar Haveli”, we have  appealed all our colleague industries to pay all the wages and salaries to their employees  through bank accounts.  As we all are aware that, this is the dream of our Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modiji to have cashless transaction all over India.  Hon’ble Administrator of Dadra & Nagar Haveli Shri Madhyup Vyasji has also sought cooperation from all the colleague industries to come forward and to go cashless transaction  and in no circumstances any industries shall pay salaries, wages to their employees in cash. It shall be also insured by the industries that, its contractors also pay the salaries to the workers through Bank only.

In the said email, it was requested to colleague industries to contact you association SIMA in case of any issue face by them in payment of wages and salaries through Bank. It was assured that, Administration will help the industries in opening of bank accounts of their employees in any bank in Dadra & Nagar Haveli. It was also assured that, ID proof in form of Aadhar Card shall be issued by Administration to the employees to enable them to open bank account.

Till date, we have not received any feedback and data from any industries colleagues, so we hope that all industries have already adopted the cashless payment of wages and salaries to their employees. All the industries are hereby requested to submit the data of employees working in their factories/units along with their bank details and also furnish the details of numbers of employees who couldn’t have opened their account due to any issue, so that SIMA can take up the matter appropriate Bank Authority and Administration to help such employees.

All the colleague industries are once again requested to  pay wages and salaries to their employees through bank only and make “Cashless India” successful.

Thanking you,
