Maharashtra as India’s 1st state to develop a Migration Tracking System app

Maharashtra became the first state in India to develop a website-based Migration Tracking System (MTS) application to track the movement of migrant workers through individual unique identity numbers.

• The MTS project is envisaged to maintain the continuity of the Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) like nutrition supply, immunisation and health check-up etc. to migrant beneficiaries including children aged up to 18 years, lactating mothers and pregnant women registered with the anganwadi centres.
• The state govt will also track migration for ensuring the portability of the ICDS for their families in their destination districts within or outside the state until their return to their native places.
