Demand for work under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) inched up in February to scale an eight-month high, after a month-on-month fall in January, reflecting an uneven recovery in broader economic activities.

According to rural development ministry data, 26.3 million individuals opted for work under the scheme in February, up 1.7% from the previous month. Demand for the work came from 21.2 million households, recording a 2.4% rise over January.

In the "individuals" category, work demand was substantially driven by three states: Tamil Nadu (3.87 million in February Vs 3.29 million in January), Andhra Pradesh (3.1 million vs 2.59 million), and Bihar (1.43 million vs 0.96 million). 

Experts said the rise in demand for MGNREGS work signals economic activities, espeially in the industrial sector, are yet to witness a strong and durable recovery.
