How the exam will ask it

ப்ரிலிம்ஸ்

  • VB-G RAM G guarantees 125 days of wage employment a year to rural households seeking unskilled manual work.
  • The scheme is administered by the Ministry of Rural Development and replaced the MGNREGA framework.
  • The grievance redressal rules allow workers to complain about delayed work, wages or entitlements.

மெயின்ஸ்

GS2: Government schemes and welfare mechanisms. Rights-based wage employment only works if workers can enforce it; the grievance rules turn delayed work and wage complaints into a formal redress process. The way forward is timely disposal, social audits, transparent payments and awareness among rural workers.
