520 _aThe Government of India introduced Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) for providing 100 man days for rural unskilled labour and reducing migration level from village to urban areas. The study has chosen Devaragudinihal Gram Panchayat (GP) and selected 30 beneficiary households through transit walk during the three-year period identified for the study, i.e. 2016-17, 2015-16 and 2014-15. The objectives of the study are impact of MGNREGA on household migration in study GP. The findings of the study are SC, ST, and OBC selected sample households were migrated during our study period. The migration reason are: Firstly, the Government provided 100 man days is insufficient for the entire family members informed by majority of the migrated households. Secondly, some of the households informed that the Government is paying lower wages under MGNREGA as compared to local market. Majority of the households informed that they need more man days. Hence the study suggests that provisions should be made to meet their requirement, so that Government may check and reduce the migration and improve the purchasing power parity (PPP). – Reproduced
