Abstract
MGNREGA is thought to be the answer to ending rural poverty and employment by stimulating the
demand for skilled labourers in Indian villages. The MGNREGA programme is the most effective
programme ever launched in India to alter rural livelihoods. The NREGA is, in a number of ways, an exact clone of past plans
with a legal guarantee. In contrast to previous programmes, MGNREGA is demand-driven. MGNREGA is a signicant step
towards the rural poor's social security system. The MGNREGA is the nation's largest employment programme that is constantly
in operation and has received signicant public funding. Because of this, the current study uses primary data from MGNREGA
beneciaries in Tamilnadu to examine the effects of the socioeconomic environment on their employment and income. This
assessment is then veried using percentage analysis, paired t-tests, and multiple regression models.
