Progress of MNREGA in Hisar district of Haryana

Abstract

The progress of MNREGA in the Hisar district of Haryana state is reported in this article. The number of person-days generated for women, SCs, and STs, as well as the number of households awarded work cards and employment, are used to report the MNREGA's performance. Based on secondary data, it can be concluded that MNREGA performed well during the study period and had a significant influence in rural communities' social empowerment. Throughout the study period, women, SCs, and STs have become more involved, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic phase (2020–21). Therefore, by enhancing the rural infrastructure, MNREGA created numerous opportunities for the district's rural economy to continue growing.
