Overview

The Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA)was enacted in September 2005, and implemented in a phased manner between February 2006 and April 2008 in all rural districts of the country. The Act aims at enhanced livelihood security of rural households, by providing at least 100 days of guaranteed wage employment in every financial year to every household whose adult members volunteer to do unskilled manual work. Creation of durable assets is also an important objective of the Scheme.
 
A performance audit of the implementation of MGNREGA in the State was conducted, covering six districts (Nalgonda, Ranga Reddy, Anantapur, Kurnool, Visakhapatnam and Vizianagaram), 18 mandals and 180 Gram Panchayats (GPs), as well as 1,800 works and 1,789 beneficiaries. Electronic data from the AP MGNREGS MIS for four districts using IT tools was also analysed.
