Abstract

One of the essential features of MGNREGA is to boost the engine of rural development through creation of durable assets. The programme is presumed to transform rural economy with ultimate objective of sustainable development through enhancement in agriculture production. Different categories of works that are executed under the scheme are aimed to make favourable conditions for villagers through environmental and infrastructure upgradation. The present study is aimed to reveal the significance of assets and their worth to the rural people on the basis of micro level field investigation in the district Mandi of Himachal Pradesh.
