MGNREGA (Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act)

The Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) dataset provides detailed information on the implementation of the MGNREGA program in India. The MGNREGA program is a flagship social welfare program of the Indian government that guarantees 100 days of employment to every rural household in the country, with a special focus on the poorest and most marginalized communities. The dataset includes information on the number of households and individuals who have benefited from the program, the amount of funds disbursed, and the types of work undertaken by program beneficiaries. The dataset is organized according to various dimensions, such as state, district, and financial year, making it easy for users to filter and analyze the data according to their specific needs. The dataset is relevant to a wide range of stakeholders, including government officials, social scientists, policy think tanks, media houses, and newsrooms. The data is collected and maintained by the Ministry of Rural Development, Government of India, and is available for download on the MGNREGA website. The dataset is a valuable resource for researchers, policymakers, and journalists interested in issues related to rural employment, poverty reduction, social inclusion, and sustainable development in India.
