(As per NREGASoft)

- (c): State/Union  Territory  (UT)-wise  percentage  of  SC/ST  workers who have availed employment under Mahatma Gandhi NREGS during the last five financial years is given at Annexure-II.

District-wise data for financial years from 2020-21 to 2024-25 can  be  accessed  via  report  number  R5.1.5  of  NREGASoft  at  the following link, which is available in public domain:

- (d): The  Government  of  India  is  committed  to  provide  adequate employment opportunities to willing eligible rural households including  Scheduled  Castes  (SC)  and  Scheduled  Tribes  (ST)  under Mahatma  Gandhi  NREGS  as  per  their  demand.  During  the  current financial year 2025-26 (as on 08.08.2025), 99.79% of the eligible rural households who demanded employment under the scheme have been offered work. During the same period, out of the total person days generated under the Mahatma Gandhi NREGS, 17.98% was generated for Scheduled Castes (SC), while 17.42% was generated for Scheduled Tribes (ST).

The  Central  Government  has  initiated  several  measures  to generate awareness about the scheme. These include, (i) to initiate

appropriate Information Education and Communication (IEC) campaigns including wall paintings for the wide dissemination of the provisions  of  the  Mahatma  Gandhi  National  Rural  Employment Guarantee Act, 2005, (ii) to expand scope and coverage of demand registration system to ensure that demand for work under Mahatma Gandhi  NREGA  does  not  go  unregistered,  (iii)  prepare  plans  in  a participatory  mode  and  approve  them  in  the  Gram  Sabha,  (iv) Organization of 'Rozgar Diwas'.

The Ministry continues to closely monitor the implementation of the scheme and provides necessary support to States to ensure that all eligible rural households are able to access employment as per their demand under the Mahatma Gandhi NREGS.

(e): The Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (Mahatma  Gandhi  NREGA),  2005,  is  an  Act  to  provide  for  the enhancement of livelihood security of the households in rural areas of the country by providing at least one hundred days of guaranteed wage employment in every financial year to every household whose adult members volunteer to do unskilled manual work.

The Ministry mandates the provision of an additional 50 days of wage  employment  (beyond  the  stipulated  100  days)  to  every Scheduled  Tribe  Household  in  a  forest  area,  provided  that  these households have no other private property except for the land rights provided under the Forest Rights Act (FRA), 2006.

In addition to this, there is a provision for providing up to an additional  50  days  of  wage  employment  in  a  financial  year  in drought/natural calamity-affected notified rural areas. Further, as per Section 3(4) of the Act, the State Governments may make provision for  providing  additional  days  of  employment  beyond  the  period guaranteed under the Act from their own funds.
