Jharkhand Labourers Protest Against Lack of Work Under MGNREGA - Animesh Bisoee

Labourers from Jharkhand’s West Singhbhum district on Saturday staged a demonstration at a block after being denied work under the Mahatma Gandhi Rural Employment Act (MGNREGA) for the last few months.

The mandate of the MGNREGA  is to provide at least 100 days of guaranteed wage employment in a  financial year to every rural household. 

“Villagers from across all the 11 panchayats in the Sonua block have been complaining for the last few months that they were denied jobs for some or other reasons. We had to take this up with the authorities as we apprehend a nexus between the local contractors and the MGNREGA officials at the panchayat level,” said Sandeep Pradhan, a member of the Khadya Suraksha Jan Adhikar Manch, an organisation espousing cause of Right to Food and MGNREGA implementation.

Nearly, 50 villagers met the Sonua block development officer, Nanjee Ram, and demanded a job.

“There is a great need for work right now, but MNREGA schemes are not running in sufficient numbers in the villages. Whenever the villagers demand work at the panchayat secretariat from the MGNREGA officials they are returned back with various excuses like there is a dearth of funds, MIS (Management Information System) is not being, and others. So far this year, schemes are not being implemented at the ground level in most of the villages” alleged Pradhan.
