What is the NREGA Job Card List 2025?
The government issues the NREGA Job Card List under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) 2005 to provide employment to poor unemployed families in rural and urban areas across India. Each state has its own NREGA job card list containing the names of eligible workers. Those on the list get a job card detailing family members and work history. This card assures each cardholder up to 100 days of wage employment in their village.
Since 2009-10, you can check the NREGA job card list online for all 34 states and union territories on the official site.
