Govt urged not to link UID, NREGA by Jaideep Deogharia

Activists associated with framing and implementation of the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) have raised alarm against linking of Aadhar, the Unique Identification Number (UID) of an individual, with the job scheme. According to them, the effort would deprive a large number of labourers of job opportunities and may result in complete blockade of the scheme at certain places. 

A movement spearheaded by development economist and member of the National Advisory Council, Jean Dreze, and visiting professor at Centre for Development Economics, Reetika Khera, aims at seeking the government's attention to the fallout of linking both the schemes at a time when the UID is yet to pick pace and implemented fully. 

''Once the making of job cards for MGNREGA is linked with a UID number, the success of the former would depend on accomplishment of the latter. And we are aware that it will take a long time for UID to be effective,'' Khera said. 

The tender was issued by ministry of rural development on October 11, 2010, in which applications have been invited to engage service providers for MGNREGA under PPP model. According to Khera, the provisions of the contract include UID-compliant enrolment of job card holders for MNREGA scheme.
