National Rural Employment Guarantee Act
INTRODUCTION:
Implemented by the Ministry of Rural Development- External website that opens in a new
window, National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA)- External website that opens
in a new window is the flagship programme of the Government that directly touches lives of
the poor and promotes inclusive growth. The Act aims at enhancing livelihood security of
households in rural areas of the country by providing at least one hundred days of guaranteed
wage employment in a financial year to every household whose adult members volunteer to
do unskilled manual work.
The Act came into force on February 2, 2006 and was implemented in a phased manner. In
Phase one it was introduced in 200 of the most backward districts of the country. It was
implemented in an additional 130 districts in Phase two 2007-2008. As per the initial target,
NREGA was to be expanded countrywide in five years. However, in order to bring the whole
nation under its safety net and keeping in view the demand, the Scheme was extended to the
remaining 274 rural districts of India from April 1, 2008 in Phase III.
National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA)- External website that opens in a new
window is the first ever law internationally, that guarantees wage employment at an
unprecedented scale. The primary objective of the Act is augmenting wage employment. Its
auxiliary objective is strengthening natural resource management through works that address
causes of chronic poverty 1 like drought, deforestation and soil erosion and so encourage
sustainable development. The process outcomes include strengthening grassroots processes of
democracy and infusing transparency and accountability in governance.
With its rights-based framework and demand driven approach, National Rural EmploymentGuarantee Act (NREGA)- External website that opens in a new window marks a paradigm
shift from the previous wage programmes. The Act is also a significant vehicle for
strengthening decentralization and deepening processes of democracy by giving a pivotal role
to the Panchayati Raj Institutions in planning, monitoring and implementation. Unique
features of the ACT include, time bound employment guarantee and wage payment within 15

days, incentive-disincentive structure to the State Governments for providing employment as
90 per cent of the cost for employment provided is borne by the Centre or payment of
unemployment allowance at their own cost and emphasis on labour intensive works
prohibiting the use of contractors and machinery. The Act also mandates 33 percent
participation for women. Over the last two years, implementation trends vindicate the basic
objective of the Act 2.
Research Methodology
The research on the topic RURAL EMPLOYMENT PROGRAMME would require both
doctrinal and non-doctrinal mode of research.
Doctrinal research or traditional research involves analysis of case laws, arranging,
ordering and systematizing legal prepositions and study of legal institutions, but it
does more it creates law and its major tools through legal reasoning or rational
deductions. In the opinion of Booming, this kind of research represents more a
practical regulative ideal of how the judicial process ought to be conceived by the
judiciary than a theoretical analysis of its actual structure and functioning.3
My doctrinal research included consulting various books related to Rural Society and
about their employment programme and Articles related to the same available in
library of Damodaram Sanjivayya National Law University.
Non-doctrinal research required me to visit a village in chitoor district, a village
named Pileru . My research work based on the inhabitants of that area only. I
personally liked that village, as villagers were aware of their rights and the plans of
the government for them. The village is very beautiful with awesome land scenic
beauty, with mountain and a small stream of water especially managed by the
Government of Andhra Pradesh for irrigation in the fields.

SAILENT FEATURES1. Rationale of Workfare Programmes
A majority of the poor in rural areas of the country depend mainly on the wages they earn
through unskilled, casual, manual labour. They are often on threshold levels of subsistence,
and are vulnerable to the possibility of sinking from transient to chronic poverty. Inadequate
labour demand or unpredictable crises that may be general in nature, like natural disaster or
personal like ill-health, all adversely impact their employment opportunities.
In a context of poverty & unemployment, workfare programmes have been important
interventions in developed as well as developing countries for many years. These
programmes typically provide unskilled manual workers with short-term employment on
8/10/2019 sociology project second sem.docx
7/18
7
public works such as, irrigation infrastructure, reforestation, soil conservation and road
construction.
The rationale for workfare programmes rests on some basic considerations. The programmes
provide income transfers to poor households during critical times and also enable
consumption smoothing, especially during slack agricultural seasons or years. In countries
with high unemployment rates, transfer benefits from workfare programmes can prevent
poverty from worsening, particularly during lean periods. Durable assets that these
programmes may create have the potential to generate second-round employment benefits as
needed infrastructure is developed.
2. Workfare Programs in India 4
The need to evolve a mechanism to supplement existing livelihood sources in rural areas was
recognized early in development planning in India. The Government implemented workfare
programmes that offered wage employment on public works at minimum wages. The wage
employment programmes started as pilot projects in the form of Rural Manpower (RMP)
[1960-61], Crash Scheme for Rural Employment (CRSE) [1971-72], Pilot Intensive Rural
Employment Programme (PIREP) [1972], Small Farmers Development Agency (SFDA),
These experiments were translated into a full-fledged wage-employment programme in 1977
in the form of Food for Work Programme (FWP). In the 1980's this programme was further
streamlined into the National Rural Employment Programme (NREP) and Rural Landless
Employment Guarantee Programme (RLEGP). Jawahar Rozgar Yojana (JRY) [1993-94],
Employment Assurance Scheme (EAS), Employment Assurance Scheme (EAS), The
Jawahar Rozgar Yojana (JRY) was merged with Jawahar Gram Samriddhi Yojana (JGSY)
from 1999-2000 and was made a rural infrastructure programme. The programme was
merged with Sampoorna Grameen Rozgar Yojana (SGRY) from 2001-02,
and National Food for Work (NFFWP) [2005]. These wage employment programmes
implemented by State Governments with Central assistance were self-targeting, and the
objective was to provide and enhance livelihood security, specially for those dependent on
casual manual labour. At the State level, the Govt. of Maharashtra formulated the
Maharashtra Employment Guarantee Scheme and Maharashtra Employment Guarantee Act,
1977 to provide wage employment to those who demanded it.

3. NREGA - Giving a statutory framework to wage employment
programmes
Based on the experience of these programmes, the National Rural Employment GuaranteeAct (NREGA) was enacted to reinforce the commitment towards livelihood security in rural
areas. The Act was notified on 7th September, 2005. The significance of NREGA lies in the
fact that it creates a right- based framework for wage employment programmes and makes
the Government legally accountable for providing employment to those who ask for it. In this
way, the legislation goes beyond providing a social safety net towards guaranteeing the right
to employment.
4. NREGA ObjectiveThe National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA) aims at enhancing the livelihood
security of the people in rural areas by guaranteeing hundred days of wage employment in a
financial year, to a rural household whose members volunteer to do unskilled manual work.
The objective of the Act is to create durable assets and strengthen the livelihood resource
base of the rural poor. The choice of works suggested in the Act address causes of chronic
poverty like drought, deforestation, soil erosion, so that the process of employment
generation is on a sustainable basis works suggested in the Act addresses causes of chronic poverty like drought, deforestation and soil erosion, so that the process of employment
generation is maintained on a sustainable basis.
5. NREGA Coverage
The Act is applicable to areas notified by the Central Government and will cover the whole
country within 5 years of its notification. In its first phase, it was notified in 200 districts
across the country5.

7. Funding
The Central Government bears the costs on the following items:

*75% of the cost of material, wages of skilled and semi skilled workers.
*Administrative expenses as may be determined by the Central Government, which will
include interalia, the salary and the allowances of the Programme Officer and his supportingstaff, work site facilities.
*Expenses of the National Employment Guarantee Council.
The State Government bears the costs on the following items:
*25% of the cost of material, wages of skilled and semi skilled workers.
*Unemployment allowance payable in case the State Government cannot provide wage
employment on time.
* Administrative expenses of the State Employment Guarantee Council.
Districts have dedicated accounts for NREGA funds. They have submitted their proposals
based on clearly delineated guidelines so that funds may be distributed efficiently at each
level, and adequate funds may be available to respond to demand. Under NREGA, fund
releases are based on an appraisal of both financial and physical indicators of outcomes.
8. NREGA - Paradigm Shift
NREGA marks a paradigm shift from the previous Wage Employment Programmes (WEPs).
NREGA provides a statutory guarantee of wage employment, that is, it offers a statutory
base, to wage seekers' application for employment. Employment is dependent upon the
worker exercising the choice to apply for registration and obtain a Job Card, and then to
exercise a choice to seek employment through a written application for the time and duration
that the worker wants. The legal guarantee has to be fulfilled within the time limit prescribed
and this mandate is underpinned by the provision of unemployment allowance. The Act is
thus designed to offer an incentive structure to the States for providing employment as ninety
percent of the cost for employment provided is borne by the Centre, and there is a
concomitant disincentive for not providing employment if demanded as the States then bear
8/10/2019 sociology project second sem.docx
12/18
12
the double indemnity of unemployment and the cost of unemployment allowance. Earlier
wage employment programmes were allocation based NREGA is not supply driven but
demand driven. Resource transfer under NREGA is based on the demand for employment
and this provides another critical incentive to States to leverage the Act to meet the
employment needs of the poor. The public delivery system has been made accountable, as it
envisages an Annual Report on the outcomes of NREGA to be presented by the Central
Government to the Parliament and to the Legislature by the State Government.

In total, I was satisfied with the Government Plans and Role in making the villages a
ideal place for living. Everything was proper, even I talked with the District
MGNREGA officer, he was also very clear and he showed me everything very crisp

CONCLUSION:
Since fifth five year plan, number of rural employment programmes was implemented in the
district so as uplift rural poor from below poverty line. Among them some programmes viz
TRYSEM, IRDP, JRGY, and MGNREG programmes are implemented successfully in the
district. All these programmes have achieved the targets significantly in the beginning. But
later the declining trend of these programmes indicates the failure of the administrators in
implementing all these rural employment generation programmes in the district.
