Their efforts were applauded and the spirit and support extended to CIDC for facilitating initiatives for growth and empowerment of our unsung heroes - the grass root construction workers encouraged.

The main highlight of this award is the practice of awarding artisans who are the unsung heroes of Construction Industry, who work tirelessly to create the wonderful assets that benefit the entire nation. This year, totally 19 artisans and 21 supervisors were awarded with commemorative trophy, Medal and Certificate in various trades. These artisans are working on diverse projects across the nation. The uniqueness of the CIDC Vishwakarma Awards is reflected in its recognition of contributions made by individuals such as grass root construction workers, artisans who often belong to marginalized sections and economically and socially weaker sections of the society.
