Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme - Summary

Download the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme in PDF format to explore this vital initiative. The Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA), introduced on February 2nd, 2006, started in 200 districts. This scheme later expanded to an additional 130 districts during the financial year 2007-2008, with 113 districts included from April 1st, 2007, and 17 districts in Uttar Pradesh (UP) added on May 15th, 2007.

By April 1, 2008, all remaining districts were included under MGNREGA. This means that the scheme now covers the entire country, except for districts that are fully urban.

Understanding MGNREGA

The main aim of the MGNREGA is to guarantee a minimum of 100 days of wage employment every financial year to each rural household, as long as the adult members are willing to do unskilled manual work.

The State Government implements the scheme, which includes important features outlined in Schedule I. Anyone working under any State Scheme created under this Act has a right to the basic facilities stated in Schedule II of the Act.

Furthermore, the schemes must adhere to specific guidelines set out in these operational parameters. The program is officially known as the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS). It is essential to use the national name and logo, which should be clearly displayed on all Information, Education, and Communication (IEC) materials and activities.

The MGNREGA operates as a Centrally Sponsored Scheme, with funds shared between the Centre and the States as defined by the Act.
