Correct Answer: Emplovment guarantee to rural households


Solution : The correct answer is (c) Employment guarantee to rural households.

The National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA), also known as the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA), is a social security measure enacted by the Indian government in 2005 . The primary objective of NREGA is to enhance livelihood security in rural areas by providing at least 100 days of guaranteed wage employment to every household that demands work.

The NREGA focuses on empowering rural households by providing them with employment opportunities, promoting sustainable development, and reducing poverty and distress migration in rural areas.
