This amount has been pending for the last five months, according to daily wage earners and activists in the state.

Grappling with the fallout of the COVID-19 pandemic, thousands of rural labourers in Andhra Pradesh turned to National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA) to earn a livelihood as several sectors of the economy have been affected. However, pending wages are adding to the woes of NREGA workers who mainly hail from the economically weaker sections and landless labour families.

NREGA mandates that wages should be paid within 15 days of the completion of the sanctioned work, but for the state of Andhra Pradesh, around Rs 420 crore are yet to be released. The whopping amount is pending for the last four to five months, according to daily wage earners and activists from different districts in the state.

According to the data available on the NREGA website, the release of Rs 303.88 crore is pending, while the payment requests for Rs 115.83 crore are yet to be approved.
