National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA) was enacted by legislation on August 25, 2005 and it was later renamed as the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) on 2nd October 2009. The MGNREGA has completed fifteen years since its beginning in India”. The target of the scheme is to improve livelihood security of the household in rural areas of the country by giving at least 100 days of guaranteed employment in every financial year of every household whose adult member volunteers to do the unskilled work. The Mahatma Gandhi NREGA sponsors a number of programmes to assist rural residents who are below the poverty line in creating wage jobs and productive assets. However, this programme has both benefits and drawbacks for a variety of reasons, so this study examines peoples' distinct opinions of the above system. Additionally, the aim of this study is to present a summary of the MGNREGA programme for researchers' simple access and use as a reference, which will help a policymaker progress the programme.
