Abstract

It may be said that the MGNREGS in the Gram Panchayat Parsdiha has made a positive contribution in creating social assets. But the quality of life of rural people is not a significant social and economic change. Rural poverty can be overcome. It is the scheme provided only a temporary solution to the problem of poverty. To overcome the problem of poverty under the scheme other areas such as water conservation, flood control, irrigation canal construction, plant-planting etc., should be included.
