“Various states of the country have sought information about the terms and conditions of HKRNL to implement the same in their states,” Chief Secretary Sanjeev Kaushal said.

The candidates hired through this Nigam also get EPF and ESI benefits and now going a step further the government has taken a new initiative to provide employment opportunities in private institutions through this portal,” he said.
