MGNREGA SCHEMES AND PROVISIONS ARE FAVOURING INDIVIDUALS PROGRESS AND DEVELOPMENT INSTEAD OF GENERAL DEVELOPMENT REQUIRED FOR THE PUBLIC UTILITY AND FACILITATION.

The National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA) came into force on second February 2006 in200 districts of the country. In spite of its limitations this Act is a ray of the hope for the working people in rural areas, however the survival and the success of the Act depends on preventing the spread of corruption in. NREGS. Many safeguards required for transparency and accountability are built into the Act and also in the NREGS. Guidelines require the Muster Rolls to be available at the site of work, displayed at the panchayat office and submitted to the Gram sabhas. This can go a long way in preventing corruption in wage payments since it makes the Muster Rolls available for public scrutiny and the social audit, however the public vigilance is required to ensure that these and other required transparency provisions are implemented. Fudging of Muster rolls is the principal means through which funds have been embezzled from public Works programmes for many years. This practice must not be allowed to persist under NREGS. One way to prevent it, is to conduct the public versification of the Muster rolls and required for the facilitation of the social audit of the Scheme and work under this provision of the good governance and accountability. As such it is necessary for the all communities to have proper registration of the Muster rolls and have information with the labours, available with in the job cards of the attendance pertaining to a particular work and period of the claims in favor of the each labourer. Keeping in view the transparency and accountability demanded under law code manual prefixed by the Act ibid in this behalf the panchayati Raj department taking no cognisance of the general development works and issuing Muster rolls for the personal works of the individual list by way and virtue of which the general development works proposed under MGNREGA are lagging behind and payments in favor of the individual are made by the department of Panchayati Raj, which is not genuine and justified under provision of the Act ibid for which general development of the public must have priority instead of the work and payments for the individual, taking benefits without any appropriate vision and decision of the frame work under demand under public utility and certified by the appropriate office and authority under transparency and accountability of the payments issued for the community service living below the poverty line and it is necessary to allow the scheme and funding for the welfare of the individual concerned.
