Indian Railways Facing a Huge Loss Due to MNREGA
Monday, August 23, 2010 13:33
MNREGA, an ambitious project from UPA, which provides working opportunity for rural youth, is proving a nightmare for Indian railways.
Every year Indian Railways receive huge revenue from migrating laborers from eastern UP and Bihar who travel to areas like Haryana, Punjab and Rajasthan in search of work.
Now when the rural youths are finding work easily at their own locality from MNREGA, migration has come down to the tune of 50%.
Indian railways saw a slump in business on the routes where labor movement has come down considerably like the east UP districts of Balia, Ghazipur, Bahraich, Basti, Gorakhpur, Gonda towards Mumbai, Delhi, Ambala, Ahmedabad, Vadodara etc.
It is really a good news for the government which would be really happy on the success of their scheme.
