The correct answer is (c). The National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (NREGS), also known as Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA), was launched in 2005 in 200 districts of India. It was later extended to all the districts of the country.
The NREGS is a social security program that guarantees 100 days of paid employment in a year to every rural household whose adult members volunteer to do unskilled manual work. The program is implemented by the Ministry of Rural Development, Government of India.
The NREGS has been successful in providing employment to millions of rural people and has helped to improve their livelihoods. It has also helped to reduce poverty and inequality in rural areas.
The NREGS has been criticized for its implementation problems, such as delays in payment of wages and corruption. However, it remains a popular program among rural people and is seen as an important tool for rural development.
