\nParliamentary Standing Committee reports have strongly recommended increasing the guaranteed number of days of work under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) from 100 days to 150 days.
\n<\/section>\n
\n– The MGNREGA currently guarantees 100 days of wage employment in a financial year to every rural household whose adult members volunteer to do unskilled manual work.
\n– Various committees and studies have highlighted that 100 days may not be sufficient to address rural distress, especially in regions facing drought or other environmental challenges.
\n– A prominent recommendation from the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Rural Development and other bodies has been to increase this guaranteed period to 150 days per household per year to provide more substantial income support.
\n<\/section>\n
\nIncreasing the guaranteed days aims to provide greater income security to rural poor households and act as a more effective safety net, particularly during periods of economic slowdown or agricultural distress.
