14. Effects of NREGA:-
• MGNREGA has provided around
Rs 1,10,700 crore (66 per cent of
the total expenditure of around
Rs 1,66,000 crore) as worker
wages from FY 2006 up to FY
2011–12*.
• Studies note a positive impact of
this transfer on household
income, monthly per capita
expenditure, food security and
health of the beneficiaries.
• Overall, while there are several
indications of the significant
impact of the Scheme, it has
even greater potential in terms of
poverty alleviation at scale, that
can be realise

15. Impact on Food Security, Savings
and Health Outcomes:-
• Studies on poverty suggest that deprivation
across a wide range of nutrients (calories, micro-
nutrients, etc.), can lead to a poverty trap where
low nutrition leads to low productivity which in
turn leads to low wages and then to low nutrition,
thus completing a vicious cycle.
• Depending on how net transfers from
MGNREGA are spent, their nutritional
implications may be significant.21 MGNREGA
has contributed to ensuring a higher intake of
food and food availability.
