ABSTRACT:
The research paper was conducted through employment program to sample tribal families in Mahasamund district. The employment and income received in 2015-16 has been studied and along with this, the employment planning commission received from agricultural workers, agricultural labor etc. from other sectors has been analyzed so that it can be known what the share of employment and maternal income is received from MNREGA program in the total annual employment and income of fearless workers and other work workers of families. Employment is an important determining factor in the socio-economic development of any country and is also a major requirement for living a respectable life. The available resources of employment reflect the development of any country, while employment is also a medium for the socio-economic upliftment of an individual. While the people engaged in employment get income from it, along with this, the person does not spend his time in unnecessary tasks but in productive work, which leads to the development of the country along with the personal development of that person. Unemployment gives rise to an inferiority complex in the mind of a person, which motivates that person to do work against the policy. In such a situation, it is necessary that proper and respectable employment should be provided to every person in the country. Keeping this in mind, in this chapter of the presented research study, an attempt has been made to analyze the impact of Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Program (MGNREGA) on the socio-economic development of model tribal families of Mahasamund district. Hence, in the present study the impact of MNREGA programmed on employment, income and standard of living of the sample tribal families during the survey year has been analyzed.
