The National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA) 2005 has been a landmark legislation in the Indian history of social security legislation post independence. This Act has been devised as a public works programme with a rights-based approach of providing 100 days of guaranteed wage employment as income security to rural households, reduce the rampant distress migration from rural areas, and create a durable community to trigger an overall development of about six lakh Indian villages.
