Centre will now define minimum work requirement under MGNREGA: Report

-Business Standard

Earlier, state governments had the responsibility to define the minimum quantum of work required to earn a day's wages

The central government will now define the minimum quantum of work required to earn a day's wages under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGA), as reported by the Economic Times (ET). It was earlier decided by the state government.

The Centre may look to make changes under Section 27(1) of the MGNREGA Act. It states, "The Central Government may give such directions as it may consider necessary to the state government for the effective implementation of the provisions of this Act."

"This section gives the power to the ministry to give directions for effective implementation of the Act. The new definition of minimum work will be issued under this," an official told ET.
