Listen to our Podcast: Grow your wealth and keep it secure.

0:00 / 0:00

Definition: Mahatma Gandhi NREGA aims to improve the financial stability of rural households. It guarantees 100 days of paid work every year to every household where adults are willing to do unskilled manual labour.

MGNREGA stands for Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act. A demand-driven wage employment scheme, MGNREGA helps improve the livelihood of rural households by guaranteeing 100 days of paid work each financial year. The key points of the act are to provide willing adults in each household, create useful assets and improve resources for the poor, promote social inclusion, and strengthen local Panchayat Raj institutions.

The MGNREGA scheme gives rural households the right to work and earn a living. These households can request work from the government and receive payment for the work they do. The key benefits of this scheme include:

  • Employment generation for rural households

  • The scheme assists in dealing with poverty in rural areas, ensuring every household gets a regular income

  • With a focus on women's employment, MGNREGA also promotes gender equality

  • By supporting infrastructural development such as building assets like roads and irrigation facilities, the schemes create employment opportunities

  • Including the underprivileged SCs and STs, the scheme offers equal access of employment for all.
