Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) is established to reduce rural poverty through 100 days of guaranteed employment per year. This paper gives a study on the effects of MNREGA and other employment generation schemes on Indian economy. An article is presented on whether this program has given social protection for SC, ST and Women by guaranteed employment. MGNREGA and other job generation schemes are observed to provide some basic jobs for marginalized groups. There is evidence of small but significant labour-related shifts.
