This comes even as rural India is suffering its worst unemployment crisis in 45 years

The Union government slashed budgetary allocation for its flagship Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Generation Act (MGNREGA) in the Budget 2020-21, at a time when rural India is facing all sorts of crises including rising food bills and highest unemployment in the last five decades

MGNREGA guarantees at least 100 days of employment to adults of every rural household.

MGNREGA’s budgetary allocation for the current year is just Rs 61,500 crore. The revised estimates for 2019-20 was Rs 71,001.81 crore. The total budgetary allocation last year was Rs 60,000 crore.

“The Indian economy needs higher rural incomes and demand. The government is doing exactly the opposite of that,” Kiran Vissa, a Hyderabad-based farmer activist, said.
