The state government has been told to see whether the change of the name of MNREGA has sparked anger among people at any level.

The party’s executive president, Nitin Nabin, held a video conference with the Panchayat and Rural Development ministers of the BJP-ruled states on Thursday.

The ministers were told to see that there was no confusion about the scheme at the lower level. They were also advised to interact with the Sarpanches.
