This despite the fact that the scheme besides guaranteeing employment, is aimed at making a positive impact on the social and economic well-being of rural women. It was designed to provide women an opportunity to earn equal wages as men, and narrow the gender gap in income that is around 30 per cent at present across the country.<br /> <br /> According to the Ministry of Rural Development, of the total person days generated under MGNREGS in the State, women participation is just 36.21 per cent (pc) against 63.79 pc men in the current financial year. While this contradicts the fact that poverty forces women to take up casual jobs, stakeholders claimed that the primary reason behind low participation of women in MGNREGS is male-domination and lack of motivation. Apparently, neighbouring States like Andhra Pradesh and Chhattisgarh have greater participation of women at 55.73 pc and 49.56 pc respectively.<br /> <br /> The situation in Odisha has more or less been the same since 2012-13. The percentage of women work force declined from 39.06 pc in 2012-13 to 35.57 pc in 2013-2014. However, it saw a marginal rise of .19 per cent in the last fiscal when it was recorded at 35.76 per cent.

While this contradicts the fact that poverty forces women to take up casual jobs, stakeholders claimed that the primary reason behind low participation of women in MGNREGS is male-domination and lack of motivation.

Job Guarantee Scheme Fails Odisha Women -Diana Sahu |
-The New Indian Express
BHUBANESWAR: Though lakhs of persons are enrolled under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) in the State, not many women benefit out of it. The State, which has a huge casual labour population, continues to lag behind when it comes to participation of women in MGNREGS. This despite the fact that the scheme besides guaranteeing employment, is aimed at making a positive impact on the social and economic well-being of rural women. It was designed to provide women an opportunity to earn equal wages as men, and narrow the gender gap in income that is around 30 per cent at present across the country. According to the Ministry of Rural Development, of the total person days generated under MGNREGS in the State, women participation is just 36.21 per cent (pc) against 63.79 pc men in the current financial year.
