ANSWER

MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT (SHRI KAMLESH PASWAN)

(a)to(c): Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (Mahatma Gandhi NREGS) is a demand-driven wage employment scheme. There are no dues pending for wage component payment,   under Scheme for the Financial Year(s) 202122, 2022-23 and 2023-24 for any State/UT including Kerala, except the State of West Bengal.

In  case  of  State  of  West  Bengal, there  is  a  pending  liability  of Rs.  4,137  crore  for  financial  year  2021-22  and  Rs.  1,416  crore  for financial year 2022-23 as release of fund to the State underMahatma Gandhi  NREGS  have  been  stopped  since  09 th   March  2022  as  per provisions under section 27 of the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment  Guarantee  Act,  2005  due  to  non-compliance  with directions of the Central Government.

As  per  the  provision  of  the  Mahatma  Gandhi  National  Rural Employment Guarantee Act, 2005 the State Government is responsible for effective implementation and to ensure transparency  and  accountability in the implementation  of the Scheme.  Also,  according  to  the  provision  of  the  Act,  if  the  State Government is not fully successful in discharging its responsibility then  the  Central  Government  has  the  right  to  issue  appropriate guidelines as well as to stop the release of funds.

This  Ministry  has  communicated  to  the  Government  of  West Bengal for compliance with the directions for which the compliance report is awaited.

State/UT-wise details of pending liabilities for the  wage component  under Mahatma  Gandhi  NREGS  for  the  three  Financial Year(s) 2021-22, 2022-23, 2023-24 and upto current FY 2024-25 (as on 25.07.2024) are given at Annexure-I.

State/UT-wise details of pending liabilities for material components under Mahatma Gandhi NREGS  for the three Financial Year(s) 2021-22, 2022-23, 2023-24 and upto current FY 2024-25 (as on 25.07.2024)     are given at Annexure II.

Under  Mahatma  Gandhi  NREGS,  States/UTs  submit  funds release proposals to the Government of India. The Ministry releases funds periodically in two tranches with each tranche consisting of one or more installments, keeping in view the 'agreed to'

LabourBudget, demand for works, opening balance, pace of utilization  of  funds,  pending  liabilities,  overall  performance  and subject to submission of relevant documents by the States/UTs.

Fund  release  to  the  States/UTs  is  a  continuous  process  and the Central Government is committed to making funds available to States/UTs for the implementation of the Scheme as per the demand for work on the ground.

State/UT-wise details of funds released under Mahatma Gandhi NREGS during  the  financial  years  from  2021-22  to  2024-25  (as  on 25.07.2024) are given at Annexure-III.

- (d):   State/UT-wise  details  of  expenditure  incurred  (including  State share) under Mahatma Gandhi NREGS from 2021-22 to 2024-25 (as on 25.07.2024) are given at Annexure-IV.
- (e): During the financial year 2021-22 (as on 31.01.2022), an amount of Rs.7,507,80 crore was released towards wage, material & administrative contingency to the State of West Bengal under Mahatma Gandhi NREGS.
- (f):     Mahatma  Gandhi  NREGS  offers  employment  opportunities  to the  rural  population  willing  to  do  unskilled  work  while  creating productive assets.

Several  steps  have  been  taken  to  strengthen  transparency and accountability which include geo-tagging, Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT), National electronic Fund Management System (NeFMS), Aadhaar Based Payment System (ABPS) and National Mobile Monitoring  System,  Software  for  Estimate  Calculation  using  Rural rates  for  Employment  (SECURE),  National  Level  Monitors  (NLMs) and Social Audit.

To monitor the progress of the implementation of the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act, (Mahatma Gandhi NREGA) in States/UTs, independent agencies empanelled as National Level Monitors (NLMs) with the Ministry of Rural Development were deputed to conduct special monitoring visit. NLM Agencies  were  required  to  visit  the  selected  districts  to  observe and monitor the progress made under the scheme and assess the quality of implementation therein.

Details  of  Monitoring  Visits  done  by  the  Central  team  to different States and the amount recovered/recommended for recovery are as under:-

|   Sl. No. | State           | Amount Recovered   |
|-----------|-----------------|--------------------|
|         1 | West Bengal     | Rs. 161 lakhs      |
|         2 | Telangana       | Rs. 11791 lakhs    |
|         3 | Punjab          | Rs. 42.31 lakhs    |
|         4 | Kerala          | Rs. 25.54 lakhs    |
|         5 | *Madhya Pradesh | Rs. 147.96 lakhs   |
|         6 | *Rajasthan      | Rs.16.21 lakhs     |

In  addition  to  above,  Section  17  of  the  Mahatma  Gandhi NREGA, 2005 mandates the Gram Sabha to conduct Social Audits. The Act mandates Social Audit of works by Gram Sabha. States/UTs-wise detailed report on Social Audit recovery is annexed as Annexure-V.

Also,  Para  30  of  Schedule  I  of  the  Mahatma  Gandhi  NREGA mandates that there shall be an Ombudsperson for each District for receiving grievances,  enquiring  into  and  passing  awards  as  per Guidelines.  As  of  25.07.2024,  ombudspersons  have  received  8,784 complaints and more than 6,630 have been disposed of so far.

(g):        As  per  Section 6 (1) of the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment  Guarantee  Act  (Mahatma  Gandhi  NREGA),  2005,  the Central  Government  specifies  wage  rates  for  its  beneficiaries. These  rates  are  determined  using  the  Consumer  Price  Index  for Agricultural Labour (CPI-AL). In order to compensate the MGNREGA beneficiaries against inflation, Ministry  of  Rural  Development revises wage rates annually, based on changes in the CPI-AL, with each State/UT having the option to provide wages higher than the rates notified by the Central Government.
