The Centre has notified the latest revision in MGNREGA wages for the year 2024-25, with the new rates set to come into force from April 1. The revised wages under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act will see hikes ranging between 4-10% for different states. The move also includes fast-tracking the enrollment of unorganized workers on e-Shram. The revision has sparked political reactions, with TMC's Saket Gokhale criticizing the low hike as a display of BJP's stance on Bengal, while Congress leader Rahul Gandhi sarcastically congratulated workers on their 'increased' salary.
