India has been awarded the Outstanding Achievement in Social Security Award 2025 by the International Social Security Association (ISSA) for its significant progress in expanding social protection. The country's social security coverage has increased from 19% in 2015 to over 64% in 2025, benefiting more than 940 million citizens. The e-Shram portal, which connects unorganised workers to social security, has been a key factor in this achievement. The award highlights India's growing influence in global social security dialogue, as noted by Union Minister Dr. Mansukh Mandaviya.
