It aims to provide at least 100 days of guaranteed wage employment in a financial year to every household whose adult members volunteer to do unskilled manual work.<\/p>\n<p>The MGNREGA has been successful in reducing rural out-migration in a number of ways. First, it has provided employment opportunities in rural areas, which has reduced the need for people to migrate to urban areas in search of work. Second, it has improved agricultural infrastructure, which has made it more profitable for farmers to stay in rural areas. Third, it has promoted skill development, which has made it easier for people to find employment in rural areas.<\/p>\n<p>The MGNREGA has been a major success story in India. It has helped to reduce rural poverty, improve rural infrastructure, and promote rural development. It is a model for other countries to follow in their efforts to reduce rural poverty and improve rural development.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a brief explanation of each option:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Providing employment in rural areas<\/strong>. The MGNREGA provides employment opportunities in rural areas, which has reduced the need for people to migrate to urban areas in search of work. The Act guarantees 100 days of employment in a financial year to every household whose adult members volunteer to do unskilled manual work. This has helped to reduce rural unemployment and poverty.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Improving agricultural infrastructure<\/strong>. The MGNREGA has also helped to improve agricultural infrastructure in rural areas. The Act provides for the construction of irrigation canals, roads, and other infrastructure projects in rural areas. This has helped to increase agricultural productivity and incomes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Promoting skill development<\/strong>. The MGNREGA also promotes skill development in rural areas. The Act provides for training in various skills, such as carpentry, masonry, and plumbing. This has helped to make people more employable in rural areas.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;aims to reduce rural out-migration by: a) Providing employment in rural areas&#8221;
