| Abstract/Description: | The study was conducted in two districts, Burdwan and South Dinajpur of west Bengal with 200 MNREGA beneficiaries as respondents to assess the impact of MNREGA on the livelihood security of the beneficiaries. Significant changes were found in food security, income security, habitat security, health security and environmental security of the respondents after working under MNREGA. Majority of the respondents (82.5%) were found to be fallen under medium livelihood security category after MNREGA, whereas 80.5 percent of the respondents were found to be fallen under low livelihood security category before MNREGA. So, majority of the respondents shifted from low to medium livelihood security category after commencement of MNREGA in the study area. |
