Moreh, Mar 10: The National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (NREGS) is making a good impact in several villages of Manipur.
In Moreh block comprising 95 villages, people are enjoying the benefits of the scheme as they are gainfully employed.
The Central Government launched the ambitious NREGS in 2006 to provide employment to villagers.
Villagers who wasted away their time aimlessly are now harnessing their productive potential to the hilt. They are getting more than a hundred days of employment now.
This has also helped them in channelizing their energy and is keeping them away from militant groups, which target unemployed youth to swell their ranks.
