The Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) has been allocated ₹86,000 crore in the Union Budget for the fiscal year 2025-26, maintaining the same level as the previous year. M.ECONOMICTIMES.COM MGNREGA operates on a demand-driven model, meaning funds are allocated based on the demand for work rather than predetermined state or district allocations. There is no fixed State/UT-wise allocation of funds under the scheme. RURAL.GOV.IN The distribution of funds to districts is dynamic and depends on several factors, including: Demand for Work: The number of households requesting employment under MGNREGA in a particular district. Project Proposals: The nature and number of projects proposed by the district authorities that align with MGNREGA objectives. Utilization of Previous Funds: Efficient and effective utilization of previously allocated funds by the district. For detailed and up-to-date information on fund allocation and expenditure at the district level, you can refer to the official MGNREGA website's Management Information System (MIS) portal. This platform provides comprehensive data on various aspects of the scheme, including financial statements, work progress, and employment details across different states and districts. Additionally, the Ministry of Rural Development periodically releases press statements and reports detailing fund allocations and expenditures under MGNREGA, which can offer further insights into the distribution of funds. RURAL.GOV.IN By consulting these resources, you can obtain a clearer picture of how MGNREGA funds are allocated and utilized across different regions. Sources
