Bihar to fix snags in MGNREGA’s app-based attendance system
The district administration in Bihar’s Muzaffarpur has stepped in to help workers employed under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act scheme resolve the problems they face while marking their attendance using the National Mobile Monitoring System. We have deputed an additional PO for the task who will be given access to the app.” Speaking to The Hindu, Muzaffarpur District Magistrate Pranav Kumar said no MGNREGA workers would be staging a sit-in as the issue has been resolved. ‘No mobile connectivity’ Sanjay Sahni, coordinator of MGNREGA Watch, an organization based in the district, had pointed out that thousands of workers employed at Sakra, Kudhani, Gaighat, Bandra, Mudaul, Mushahari, Bochaha, Aurai and Katra blocks in the district had not received their wages as their attendance had not been recorded on the app. “We will stage an indefinite dharna on the premises of the District Magistrate’s office from January 17 if the attendance of thousands of MGNREGA workers are not properly recorded,” Mr. Sahni said.
