 Summary of this article
- The Union government has introduced a Bill to replace MNREGA with the Viksit Bharat—Guarantee for Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission (Gramin) (VB-G RAM-G).
- Critics argue that the proposed law shifts a greater financial burden onto state governments.
- Several provisions in the Bill, they say, effectively transform the programme from a demand-driven employment guarantee into a supply-driven scheme.
