A Study on Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme in Vadapalanji Panchayat

Abstract

India has great relation with rural community. More than 70 percent of India's population still lives in rural areas. And three-fourths of the Indian poor live in village. Among the poor people in rural areas, majority of them work in non-agricultural and available daily wage activities. The weaker and the poorer sections of the rural society are confronted with caste and class divides and male, female disparities, in many aspects of employment and work environment, especially in job changes from less productive non-agricultural activities, almost on a day-to-day basis
