Researchers claimed that the compensation under MGNREGA was delayed either by the Centre or the state governments in almost half of the 92 lakh cases it studied

New Delhi:
Researchers claimed on Friday that the compensation under MGNREGA was delayed either by the Centre or the state governments in almost half of the 92 lakh cases it studied. The outcomes of an ongoing study were shared at a press conference called here by the Swaraj Abhiyan, an NGO run by Yogendra Yadav and Prashant Bhushan.

The study was conducted by Rajendran Narayanan, a faculty member at a Bangaluru-based private university, and two independent researchers. “We sampled over 92 lakh transactions spanning 3,446 panchayats spread over 10 states. The data was taken from the MIS transactions of the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme, which is in the public domain,” he said.

Narayanan claimed that in many cases, “even the delays were not factored in, let alone the compensation”. “While in 20% of the cases, the compensation was paid within the stipulated 15 days, in about 47% of the cases, it was delayed either by the Centre or the state. In the remaining 33% cases, there was no calculation at all,” he claimed.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi had once dubbed MGNREGA as a “living monument of the Congress’ failure”, said Bhushan, adding, “But now, his (Modi’s) own government has turned insensitive towards the needs of the farmers and poor. That is why farmers’ protests are erupting spontaneously at various places.”
