Why does Congress want to raise the issue of MNREGA in the CWC meeting? understand the whole story
News India Live, Digital Desk: Recently, a meeting of the Congress Working Committee (CWC) was held, in which once again the issue of MNREGA (Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act) was raised loudly. Actually, Congress wants that there should be continuous discussion regarding this program and the debate should continue on it. The question is why so? After all, why does the Congress Party always want to keep this scheme in discussion and what political benefits are hidden in it for them? Come, let us understand the whole thing. MNREGA: Sanjeevani herb for Congress. You will remember that MNREGA scheme was started during the UPA government. At that time it proved to be a game changer, especially in providing employment to people in rural areas. It has played an important role in strengthening the rural economy. Congress leaders believe that this was a very successful scheme of their government, which directly benefited crores of poor and laborers of the country. This is the reason why Congress considers it as its heritage and a kind of lifesaving herb, which they do not want to let weaken under any circumstances. Focus not only on MNREGA, but on the entire ‘thinking’ of UPA. Congress now wants to bring into discussion again not just MNREGA, but all such schemes and policies brought during the UPA government, with the help of which people’s lives had improved. They want to show the public how people-centric the economic policies of the UPA government and its ‘social security’ thinking were. MNREGA is just an example of this. Be it RTI (Right to Information) or Right to Food, Congress wants the debate to continue on all these. They believe that the present government is weakening the soul of these schemes. The game of protest and politics. Ever since the Modi government came to power, the Congress has been continuously cornering the government over the alleged ‘attack’ on MNREGA. Congress alleges that the Modi government is deliberately reducing the budget of MNREGA and creating obstacles in it, due to which lakhs of laborers are not getting work or are not getting wages on time. Congress says that the policies of the Modi government are going to benefit a few selected industrialists, whereas the policies of the UPA were for the common man. In view of the next elections, MNREGA has become a big political weapon for the Congress. Through this, she accuses the government of snatching away rural employment, weakening the rights of workers and ignoring the economy. At the same time, she wants to prove her party as a true well-wisher of the common people and the messiah of the poor. He believes that whenever there is talk of MNREGA, the golden days of UPA will be remembered, which will give them political benefit. That is why whether it is a CWC meeting or an election meeting, the issue of MNREGA always remains at the top of the agenda of the Congress. This is their effort to ensure that people do not forget this important scheme and that the present government can be held accountable for it.
