MNREGA.<\/p>\n<p>The Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA), also known as the National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA), is a social security program in India that aims to guarantee rural employment to adult members of rural households. The program was launched on 2 October 2005, and it is the world&#8217;s largest public works program.<\/p>\n<p>The program provides 100 days of guaranteed employment in a financial year to every household whose adult members volunteer to do unskilled manual work. The work provided under the program must be related to water conservation, land development, drought proofing, flood control, irrigation, rural roads, afforestation, and other similar projects.<\/p>\n<p>The program is implemented by the Ministry of Rural Development, Government of India. The program is funded by the central government, and it is also supported by state governments and local bodies.<\/p>\n<p>The program has been successful in providing employment to millions of rural people. It has also helped to improve the infrastructure in rural areas.
