'Planned euthanasia of MGNREGA by trapping it in chakravyuh', says Congress

In a post on X, Ramesh said, “Social audits by the gram sabha are an essential part of the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act. They are meant to enforce accountability and enhance transparency – basically to stamp out corruption. Each state has an independent social audit that is funded directly by the Centre so as to preserve its autonomy. Of late this funding has been getting inordinately delayed.”

“As a result, social audits don’t get done on time, and the social audit process gets compromised, which is then used as an excuse by the Modi government to deny funds to the states, that in turn affects wage payments and so on,” the Rajya Sabha MP said

“This is nothing but a planned euthanasia of MGNREGA – by trapping the scheme in a chakravyuh,” Ramesh said, attaching a news report.

The Congress has been critical of the government over the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) scheme.
