A 25.6 per cent drop in the number of person-days under MGNREGS was recorded in 2025-26 compared to the last two financial years, even as the trend of high deletions was reversed during the previous financial year, and up to September this year, a report released on Wednesday said.
The report - MGNREGA Implementation in India: Insights and Trends, April-Sept 2025, brought out by LibTech India, a consortium of activists and academicians, said that a trend of a high number of worker deletions, which was witnessed in 2022-23 and 2023-24, was reversed in 2024-25, and the reversal continued this year as well.
However, 132.5 crore person days were generated between April and September this year under the scheme across the country, which is a drop of 11.7 per cent from 150.1 crore in the same period in 2024-25, and a drop of 25.6 per cent from 178.1 crore in 2023-24, the report said.
“This highlights the worrying trend of gradual decline in MGNREGS’ employment generation each year,’ the report said.
