- The new Code, 2020, aims to provide an option for inter-state migrant workers.
- They can avail benefits of PDS either in their native state or where they are employed.
- This is significant because migrant workers often lose access to benefits when they move.
- Portability ensures continuous access to essential services like food.
- It addresses the challenge of lack of identity proof and inaccessibility to state services.
- This improves their social security and welfare.
