Evaluation of implementation of NREGS in Orissa

Orissa is one of the states which has been the focus of academics, media and others alike. In the light of this, the Government of Orissa requested National Institute of Rural Development (NIRD) to carry out an independent concurrent evaluation of the implementation of the NREGS in Orissa and provide necessary feed back to effect appropriate corrective measures and put the scheme on right course. The evaluation comprised two parts; one, personal interview of 1600 workers (job card holders who worked in the scheme) and 400 non workers (job card holders but not worked) and a Social Audit. This report is based on the social audit; the social audit reports of 40 GPs have already been submitted to Government of Orissa.
