• Mizoram has the highest percentage of active NREGA workers at 100% (2.11 lakh active out of 2.11 lakh registered), showcasing a remarkable participation rate in rural employment programs.
• Other states with very high active worker percentages include:
• Ladakh: 102.63% (0.39 lakh active out of 0.38 lakh registered, indicating updated/revised worker records)
• Manipur: 104.92% (6.61 lakh active out of 6.3 lakh registered)
• Meghalaya: 117.39% (8.23 lakh active out of 7.01 lakh registered)

• Madhya Pradesh: 110.6% (100.02 lakh active out of 90.39 lakh registered)
• Andhra Pradesh: 136.4% (96.52 lakh active out of 70.74 lakh registered)
• Tamil Nadu: 104.3% (88.75 lakh active out of 85.08 lakh registered)

• Other high contributors includes Rajasthan (1.16 crore active), Madhya Pradesh (1.00 crore active), Andhra Pradesh (96.52 lakh active), Bihar (97.7 lakh active), Tamil Nadu (88.75 lakh active), Maharashtra (84.83 lakh active)

Range of Participation:

• States like Punjab (74.9%), Himachal Pradesh (91.0%), and Assam (83.2%) show moderate-to-high participation rates.
• On the lower end, DN Haveli and DD stand at 136.4% (0.15 lakh active out of 0.11 lakh registered, showing updated beneficiary counts), while Goa (18.9%) and West Bengal (13.5%) reflect minimal engagement.

National Overview:

• Out of the total 15.45 crore registered NREGA job cards in India, only 12.18 crore are actively engaged as of July 25, 2025.
• The national average of active participation stands at around 78.8%, but there is wide variation across states and union territories.

These figures highlight the uneven distribution of NREGA implementation and participation across India. While some states have managed to ensure high worker engagement and better utilization of the scheme, others lag behind, possibly due to regional socio-economic factors, administrative efficiency, or local awareness levels.

MGNREGA Annual Master Circular 2024-25

Every year, central government of India releases master circular of MGNREGA containing the details of the scheme implementation for the coming financial year.

This year also, the government has released the master circular and can be downloaded using the below link in PDF format.

What is MGNREGA Act, 2005?

Mahatma Gandhi Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA or NREGA) is an Indian labour law and social security measure that aims to guarantee the “right to work” and was passed in September 2005. This scheme aims to enhance livelihood security in rural areas by providing at-least 100 days of wage employment in a financial year to each household. For this, adult members must volunteer to do unskilled work.

NREGA was scoped up to cover all the districts of India from 1 April 2008 as the largest and most ambitious social security and public works programme in the world. Another aim of MGNREGA is to create durable assets (such as roads, canals, ponds and wells). Employment is to be provided within 5 km of an applicant’s residence, and minimum wages are to be paid.

How Does NREGA Scheme Benefit Poor People?

In case work is not provided within 15 days of applying, applicants are entitled to an unemployment allowance. This means that if the government fails to provide employment, it has to provide certain unemployment allowances to those people. Thus, employment under NREGA Scheme is a legal entitlement. MGNREGA is to be implemented mainly by gram panchayats (GPs) and the involvement of contractors is banned.

Apart from providing economic security and creating rural assets, NREGA can help in protecting the environment, empowering rural women, reducing rural-urban migration and fostering social equity. The law provides many safeguards to promote its effective management and implementation. The act explicitly mentions the principles and agencies for implementation, list of allowed works, financing pattern, monitoring and evaluation, and most importantly the detailed measures to ensure transparency and accountability.
