The government of India had initiated bank payments of wages under Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Programme (MGNREGP).

It is also identified that the women job card holders of the households are deprived to become literate about banking services. This initiative of the government also encourages few participating households to initiate some savings of their wage income.

Book Description
This book offers an assessment of the performance, impact, and welfare implications of the world’s largest employment guarantee programme, the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA). Launched by the Indian government, the programme covers entire rural area of the country. The book presents various micro-level analyses of the programme and its heterogeneous impacts at different scales, almost a decade after its implementation. While there are some doubts over the future of the scheme as well as its magnitude, nature and content, the central government appears committed to it, as a ‘convergence scheme’ of various other welfare and rural development programmes being implemented at both national and state level. The book discusses the outcomes of the programme and offers critical insights into the lessons learnt, not only in the context of India, but also for similar schemes in countries in South and South-East Asia as well as in Africa, and Latin America. Adopting inter-disciplinary perspectives in analysing these issues, this unique book uses a judicious mix of methods---integrating quantitative and qualitative tools---and will be an invaluable resource for analysts, NGOs, policymakers and academics alike.

Book Description
India's ambitious National Rural Employment Guarantee Act creates a justiciable 'right to work' by promising up to 100 days of employment per year to all rural households whose adult members want unskilled manual work on public works projects at the stipulated minimum wage. Are the conditions stipulated by the Act met in practice, under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS)? What impact on poverty do the earnings from the scheme have? Does the scheme meet its potential? How can it do better? Right to Work? Assessing India's Employment Guarantee Scheme in Bihar studies the MGNREGS's impact across India, then focuses on Bihar, the country's third largest and one of its poorest states. It shows that although the scheme has the potential to substantially reduce poverty through extra earnings for poor families, that potential is not realized in practice. Workers are not getting all the work they want, nor are they getting the full wages due. The intended recipients' awareness of how to obtain work is low. In a controlled experiment, a specially designed fictional movie was used to show how knowledge of rights and processes can be enhanced. Although the movie effectively raised awareness and improved public perceptions of the scheme, it had little effect on actions such as seeking employment when needed. Supplyside constraints in responding to demand for work must also be addressed. A number of specific constraints to work provision are identified, including poor implementation capacity, weak financial management, and inadequate monitoring systems. Addressing these constraints would allow this major antipoverty program to come much closer to reaching its potential.

Book Description
Economic development remains the major objective of any economy and rural development is an integral part of overall development programme. Similarly, one of the major objectives of the development planning in India, since independence, is "Growth with social justice". Upliftment of villages has always remained and will continue to remain to be the major area of achievements in all the discussions pertaining to economic growth of the economy. India is country of villages and according to census 2011, about 68.85 percent of its population reside in villages out of which 25.70 percent live below the poverty line. Majority of rural population of India depend on agriculture and allied activities for their livelihood. Creation of employment opportunities in rural areas is affected by the low rate of growth of agricultural sector. The poor, who are at the below subsistence level, largely depend on the wages earned through unskilled casual manual labour. The inadequate labour demand in lean period in agricultural sector and events like natural calamities and personal ill-health, adversely affect the level of employment, income and livelihood of rural population. Employment generation in rural areas, therefore, becomes crucial for reducing poverty. The quantum of unemployment helps to decide the action plan to be framed and followed. The National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA) was introduced in Anatpur District of Andhra Pradesh by Prime Minister, Dr Manmohan Singh on February 2, 2006. NREGA had been renamed as Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) on the occasion of 50th Anniversary of launching of Panchayati Raj and observing 2009-10 as year of Gram Sabha in New Delhi on 2nd October, 2009.
