The Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee (MNREGA) scheme which has initiated many jobs in Indian rural scenario is going to be a better version than ever. Taking a major initiative towards agriculture, the Modi government at the Center has decided to give special training to workers. Moreover, during this training, an allowance will also be given to every laborer every day. 

Training will be available here: 

All types of training will be given at your nearest Krishi Vigyan Kendra under the MGNREGA scheme. According to the report, organic manure making along with technical training will be provided in the training. Any person in the age group of 18 to 35 years can avail the advantage of this training. In the training scheme, MNREGA laborers will also be taught the skill of masons and plumbers.  

What will be the Allowance during the training? 

It is notable that the government is running many types of scheme-projects to spread the development in villages, but people are afraid to take the training under these schemes for fear of losing wages or not being able to do daily economic work. Realizing the seriousness of this matter, the government has decided to offer a daily allowance of about 200-300 rupees during training. You need to remember that this scheme can start in the middle of October. 

What is MNREGA? Know Every Detail: 

MNREGA is an important scheme of the government providing employment in rural areas of India. The Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act aims at enhancing the livelihood security of people in rural areas by guaranteeing hundred days of wage employment in a financial year to a rural household whose adult members volunteer to do unskilled manual work. 

This scheme was implemented in 2005, under which the target of 100 days of employment to adult people was set in each financial year. Issues such as promoting water conservation in rural areas, strengthening rural connectivity, flood control and security have been included under the MNREGA.
