The program was launched in 2005 and is one of the largest public works programs in the world.<\/p>\n<p>The objective of MGNREGA is to provide at least 100 days of guaranteed employment in a financial year to every household whose adult members volunteer to do unskilled manual work. The program is implemented by the Ministry of Rural Development and is funded by the central and state governments.<\/p>\n<p>MGNREGA has been successful in providing employment to millions of rural households. The program has also helped to improve the infrastructure in rural areas, such as roads, bridges, and irrigation canals. However, the program has also been criticized for its high cost and for the poor quality of the work that is done.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a brief explanation of each option:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Option <div class=\"youtube-subscribe-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCNHT8lW-JmLC68rjBfZhdkg?sub_confirmation=1\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"youtube-subscribe-button\">\r\n            <span class=\"youtube-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 576 512\">\r\n                    <path d=\"M549.7 124.1c-6.3-23.7-24.8-42.3-48.3-48.6C458.8 64 288 64 288 64S117.2 64 74.6 75.5c-23.5 6.3-42 24.9-48.3 48.6-11.4 42.9-11.4 132.3-11.4 132.3s0 89.4 11.4 132.3c6.3 23.7 24.8 41.5 48.3 47.8C117.2 448 288 448 288 448s170.8 0 213.4-11.5c23.5-6.3 42-24.2 48.3-47.8 11.4-42.9 11.4-132.3 11.4-132.3s0-89.4-11.4-132.3zm-317.5 213.5V175.2l142.7 81.2-142.7 81.2z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n            Subscribe on YouTube\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div> A: To encourage the rural people to work.
