| Summary, etc |

The Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme, the largest ever public funded programme for wage employment in India, is instrumental in bringing social security in rural areas during the pandemic period.

The problem compounded with income fluctuations and regression of consumption expenditure of rural casual workers during the pandemic.- Reproduced |
