NREGA workers union - Exposing corruption, ensuring work

In March 2010, large scale corruption in the implementation of NREGA waa exposed in Fatehpura block of Dahod district (Gujarat). The massive scale of the corruption is evident from the fact that NREGA authorities got a complaint of cheating registered with the police against 16 persons. This and some other exposures of irregularties in NREGA in the tribal belt of Gujarat became possible to a large extent due to the careful monitoring and solid mobilisation work done by the National Rural Employment Guarantee Workers' Union - Gujarat (NREGWUG).
