At least 150 days of work for each household of beneficiaries sought

VISAKHAPATNAM: The Human Rights Forum (HRF) and ‘Samalochana’ on Saturday urged the State government to clear pending wages of the beneficiaries of the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) immediately.

Describing the scheme as the lifeline for millions of rural households amid the economic downturn triggered by the coronavirus pandemic, they said a substantial portion of the household expenditure was being met with the MGNREGS wages.

“Andhra Pradesh has witnessed a 30% rise in the jobs provided under the scheme in 2020-21 fiscal year when compared to that of 2019-20. However, the actual demand and need for work has increased on the ground. The programme has run out of funds,” said ‘Samalochana’ convenor B. Chakradhar.
