VB-G RAM G Bill

VIKSIT BHARAT GUARANTEE FOR ROZGAR AND AJEEVIKA MISSION (GRAMIN) BILL EXPLAINED

The proposed VB-G RAM G Bill seeks to replace MGNREGA, raising workdays to 125 but shifting from a rights-based, demand-driven scheme to a budget-capped model. Greater central control, higher state cost sharing and work-pause provisions risk centralisation and dilution of the rural poor’s right to work.
