A significant shift in rural employment policy occurred today with the implementation of the VB-G RAM G scheme, which takes over from the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA). This transition introduces five major changes to the existing framework.

The government has announced that the new scheme will bring about substantial modifications. While the specifics of all five changes are detailed, the announcement highlights a restructuring of the program. Information regarding state-wise wage adjustments is also a key aspect of the new policy.
