WORKING OF MGNREGS

Posted On: 04 APR 2025 4:40PM by PIB Delhi

Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (Mahatma Gandhi NREGS) is a demand driven wage employment Scheme. It provides livelihood security, i.e. fall back options for livelihood for the rural households, when no better employment opportunity is available.

State/UT-wise and year-wise details of persondays generated under Mahatma Gandhi NREGS from the financial year 2019-20 to 2024-25 (as on 31.03.2025) are given at Annexure-I.

State/Union Territory (UT)-wise details of fund released for the wage component under Mahatma Gandhi NREGS from the financial year 2019-20 to 2024-25 (as on 30.03.2025) are given at Annexure-II.

In the beginning of every financial year, due and admissible pending liabilities, if any, of the previous financial year are reimbursed by the Government of India to concerned States/UTs. Accordingly, due and admissible pending liability up to FY 2023-24 has already been released to the States/UTs.

Fund release to the States/Union Territories is a continuous process and Central Government is committed for making funds available to States/UTs for the implementation of the Scheme as per demand for work on the ground.
