Guarantee Act (MGNREGA), if the government fails to provide employment within 15 days of a worker's request, what is the unemployment allowance provided to the worker?Solution
Under MGNREGA, if the government fails to provide employment within 15 days of a worker's demand, the worker is entitled to an unemployment allowance. The allowance is one-fourth of the minimum wage for the first 30 days, and half of the minimum wage thereafter. This ensures that workers are compensated when the employment guarantee is not met.
