The concept of National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA) is a major initiative of Government of India (GoI) towards poverty reduction and income generation among rural poor families. This step assumes special significance when viewed in the context of World Bank statement that more than 30 percent of India earns an income of less than $1 (Rs. 46.30) a day. However, those familiar with the socio-economic structure of Indian economy believe that this percentage is likely to be higher among the rural poor.
