Parliament Winter Session 2025 Live Updates | Through this bill, major transformation will take place in rural areas, as MGNREGA has been upgraded after 20 years: BJP MP Dinesh Sharma on plan to introduce a bill to rename the MGNREGA scheme
On the government's plan to introduce a bill to rename the MGNREGA scheme, BJP MP Dinesh Sharma said, "This will be called VB-G RAM G Bill. It guarantees 125 days of employment, not 100 days but 125 days. Of these, 60 days have been structured so that they do not overlap with the agricultural sowing season. In a way, this scheme prioritises water security, rural infrastructure, livelihoods, and environmental and climate resilience. Therefore, this bill is a boon. Through this bill, I believe a major transformation will take place in rural areas, as MGNREGA has been upgraded after 20 years."
