LibTech India conducted a study on NREGA workers’ hardships in accessing payments from preferred disbursement agencies in tribal areas of AP. The study spanned two years in Paderu ITDA, covering 877 workers from 11 randomly selected shanties out of 44.<\/p>\n

According to the study, 85% of workers primarily use customer service points (CSPs) or business correspondents (BCs) as their primary disbursement agency (DA), while 12.5% use bank branches and a small proportion use ATMs. Workers often have to travel long distances to reach the DAs, with 37% travelling more than 10 km. travelling long distances results in direct costs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
