Impact Assessment of NREGA in Bankura and

Purba-Medinipur Districts of West Bengal

Introduction The present report is the outcome of the appraisal of NREGA aims at

enhancing livelihood security of house holds in rural areas of the country by

providing at least one hundred days of guaranteed wage employment in a

financial year to every household whose adult members volunteer to do

unskilled manual work. The choice of works suggested in the Act addresses

causes of chronic poverty like drought, deforestation and soil erosion, so that

the process of employment generation is maintained on a sustainable basis.

Two years of the programme have indicated a need to evolve the design of

the monitoring system to more effectively address implementation

challenges. The present appraisal work was undertaken by the Rural

Development Centre, IIT Kharagpur with the main objective of Appraisal of

implementation of NREGA in Bankura and Purba Medinipur district of West

Bengal.

Methodology Adopted The Guidelines circulated by MoRD were followed:

Districts: Selection of the districts was made on the basis of performance

of NREGA. Two districts namely Bankura the good performing district and

Purba Medinipur the poor performing district were considered for the present

appraisal work. Subsequently the Blocks, G. Ps. and villages were selected in

due consultation with the state (P S, Jt. Secretary, Govt. W B) District

officials (DMs, BDOs, and Pradhans).

Blocks and Gram Panchayat: The sample is consisting of two blocks from

each district, four Gram Panchayats, four villages one in each G. P. from each

block. For details see Table 1 and 2.

Works: Of the listed existing works were identified for the detailed survey

(Annex.1) from each Gram Panchayat. Again as per guideline out of the total

4 works per block, 3 nos. of on going works and one no. of completed work

was selected for in depth study.

2

Workers/Beneficiaries: For the method of cross verification and in depth

analysis ten workers per work were interviewed on random basis.

Sources of information: A questionnaire was developed by covering

various issues pertaining to NREGA and the related information was collected

at different levels like (a) interview with village level workers on worksites (b)

Block levels and (c) District levels. In all 160 job card holders were

interviewed through survey form. It contains 55 questions.

Along with primary level of sources the field observations followed by people

interactions were performed to verify the work from the official’s records at

Gram Panchayats, Blocks and Districts level (Annex.2).

The details of responses to 55 questions of 160 wage earners in respect of

appraisal implementation NREGA projects both completed and on going work

in all the blocks are given in Table 3-18. Since, it was cumbersome to discuss

all the details obtained by surveying 160 beneficiary, belongings to 16

villages of in 4 blocks of two districts in West Bengal, we averaged the

responses of all interviewers in two groups, i.e. one where the work has been

completed and another where the work is ongoing at district level. The

averaged results of selected questioners are presented here (Fig 1 to 14).

Salient Findings The following are main findings/observations of the study conducted in

Bankura and Purba Medinipur districts of West Bengal.

Level of Awareness: The level of awareness among the workers in all the

GPs are high. About 80-90% Villagers are aware about the NREGA in both the

districts. This was primarily due to the effectiveness of Panchayats system for

awareness of NREGA campaigns.

Job Cards: Time gap between registration and issues of job cards varied

from 15 days (50%) to 30 days (45%) in completed and ongoing worksites of

Bankura district.

In case of Purba Medinipur, within 15 days, much of the demand for job cards

are materialized. In the case of completed works, majority of the workers

(85%) get the job cards and the figure is 55% for ongoing work.

In general the custody of job cards by job seekers is better in completed

projects, when compared to on-going projects.

Employment and Payment:

Irrespective of worksites, and geographical locations, women participation is

more than the men folk.

About 60-70% villagers agree that wage employment is done by reading

muster roll in Bankura and about 90 to 100% in Purba Medinipur.

About 40-50% daily wage earners get the job for a period of 8-14 days.

Mode of wage payment is mainly through post office in Bankura. However in

Purba Medinipur, payment is mainly through bank.

Women folk get the wages at par with the male workers.

Almost (75-80%) workers received their wage payments within a week.

Distance to worksites is within 1-2 km for Bakura and it varies from 1-5 km

in Purba Medinipur.

Facilities: Only 15-20% wage earners are satisfied with facilities at the worksites in

both the districts.

Providing child care facility would encourage more women participation.

5

Special Observations Bankura: The same job cards are being used by different members of a family. No job

cards are issued in Individual names and the payment is made to any

member of a family without any photograph.

In Ranibandh block of the same district, job cards are given to register only,

but most of them are without photograph.

Pradhans in Bankura district are unable to meet the demand of job card since

sufficient numbers of job cards have not been supplied. Similar is the case

with Panskura 1 block where Job cards are in great demand.

All the job cards holder are not turning for work. The job cards (like ration

cards) are being kept as necessary documents for future needs and leads

scarcity of cards to the needy families.

Purba Medinipur: In Ramnagar-I Block the demand for the job cards is less as because villagers

are getting regular employment with higher wages as the study area falls

near Digha sea beach and Pan mandies etc.

This is not true for the Panskura 1 block, where villagers are demanding more

and more for job cards, because of scarcity of work in the near by areas.

Ratio of man and material may be changed for the Panskura I. The villagers

want better road connectivity particularly during the rainy season.

Occurrence of floods is very frequent here.

Thus there is need for planning of NREGA projects based on the

localized needs. Such local needs could be identified by the villagers in a

meeting and should become a part of NREGA. Common and universal

recommendations should not be given for all the villages.

No timely payment is made by the local banks/ post office in any blocks of

these two districts. Postmasters in two Districts have raised the issue that

due to shortage of man power and time taken in approval from the district

office, it is not possible to open a large number of new accounts and maintain

them also.

Gramin bank are better in releasing the payment in time.

Suggestions

Job Cards and Payments: BPL families should get the first priority in getting Job Cards. Only after all

the applicant families obtain them, should the cards be released to non-BPL

families.

It is suggested that Govt. of India direct the Director GPO for opening the “0”

balance accounts at all post offices.

Job-card holders who have contributed a prescribed minimum mandatory

period of work could, for instance, be insured to cover health-related risks.

Expansion of Areas:

Presently NREGA concentrates on mainly on water harvesting / storing, check

dam, connectivity projects at the local level. These infrastructure projects

should be made a composite part of a village /regional plan, preferably put

forward by the local community.

In addition, NREGA should also include educational resources like schools

mainly for the benefit of children of BPL families. Extending quality education

facilities to children would help families overcome poverty in the best possible

way.

NREGA project should then extend its funding to productive sectors too,

which get linked with the overall village / regional plan along with re-

inventing of biodiversity.

Loans also should be extended to BPL families at cheaper rates; land-reforms

should be continuously re-visited for efficiency and enforced.

Ombudsman Tribunal: A separate tribunal should be set up to seek complaints about

implementation of NREGA projects in the State. The tribunal after soliciting

complaints could setup district level committees for completing the judicial

process.

Funding of NREGA Project

There is hardly any doubt regarding the humane-ness of NREGA project in

appreciating poverty and its resolve in tackling related issues. Hence the

allocation of funding to NREGA should be enhanced. Instead of investing in

ailing or sick banking establishments, bailing out bad-debts to the tune of

7

around 170 billions of Rupees, as disclosed by the Planning commission of

India, the government should be concentrating more on investing heavily in

NREGA.
