AI SummaryMadhya Pradesh Labour Department is running Nirmaan Sthal Par Karya Ke Dauran A-panjeekrat Shramik Ke Mratyu Ki Dasha Me Antyeshti Evan Anugrah Rashi Bhugatan Yojana for families of construction workers who are not registered with the welfare board. If a worker dies during work at a construction site, the legal heirs get ₹3,000 for funeral costs and up to ₹4,00,000 as ex-gratia money.
Applications are taken offline, and the claim has to reach the office within 6 months of the death or accident. As on 03 August 2026, no closure notice has come out for this scheme, so families of unregistered workers can still file their claim.
Nirmaan Sthal Par Karya Ke Dauran A-panjeekrat Shramik Ke Mratyu Ki Dasha Me Antyeshti Evan Anugrah Rashi Bhugatan Yojana 2026
Scheme is run by Labour Department of Madhya Pradesh and covers workers who were doing building or construction work but never got their name added to the Madhya Pradesh Building and Other Construction Workers Welfare Board list. Normally board benefits go only to card holding workers. Here that condition is dropped, because the death happened at the work site itself.
Money goes straight to the bank account of the legal heir through DBT payment. So the heir should have a bank account with Aadhaar linked to it, otherwise the payment gets stuck. Registered workers have a separate death benefit scheme with different amounts, and both should not be mixed up while applying.

Application Process
Whole process is offline. There is no online form for this scheme, so do not pay any agent who promises an online claim. Steps are given below.
STEP 1 - Get the prescribed application form from the Janpad Panchayat office, the urban body office or the nearest Lok Seva Kendra in your area.
STEP 2 - Fill the form with the worker details, date and place of the accident, name of the site or contractor, and the bank account details of the heir.
STEP 3 - Attach the death certificate, post-mortem report, FIR copy and identity papers, and get the form signed by the heir.
STEP 4 - Submit the file within 6 months of the death. In rural areas it goes to the Chief Executive Officer of the Janpad Panchayat, and in urban areas to the Commissioner or Chief Municipal Officer of the Nagar Nigam, Nagar Palika or Nagar Parishad.
STEP 5 - Take the receipt with the file number, and follow up with the same office for the approval order. After approval the amount is credited to the bank account of the heir.
Documents Required
Keep two sets of photocopies ready along with the original papers for checking at the office.
- Filled application form signed by the legal heir of the worker.
- Death certificate issued by the local body or panchayat.
- Post-mortem report and a copy of the FIR filed for the accident.

Help Number and Complaint Support
For any doubt about the claim or delay in payment, the Madhya Pradesh labour helpline number 1800-233-8888 can be used. Complaints about pending files can also be given at the district labour office, and CM Helpline 181 works for follow-up on delayed payments.
Other Support for Workers
Families who lose the earning member can also check other state support like Mukhyamantri Majadoor Suraksha Yojana, which covers labourers with separate benefits. Getting the surviving family members registered as construction workers with the board is also a good step, since card holders get pension, maternity, study and higher death benefits later.
