Prayagraj: The state government's relentless efforts towards women's empowerment and employment have yielded impressive results in Sangam City. Under the
Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act
(MGNREGA), women's participation in total workdays generated has reached an encouraging 46.71 per cent.
A total of 1.60 crore jobs (manav diwas) have so far been created under the MNREGA scheme across the state in the financial year 2025-26, out of which women contributed to the creation of more than 72 lakh jobs. The contribution of about 45 per cent is the highest so far. Interestingly, women are also proving helpful for MNREGA management and supervision.
The number of women mates employed under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MNREGA) has increased in the current financial year.
Over 5,500 women mates have been employed, marking a 3 percent rise from 41.87 per cent in 2024-25.
Deputy commissioner (MNREGA) Gulab Chandra said, "As many as 6,112,887 jobs (manav diwas) have so far been created in the Prayagraj district during the financial year 2024-25. The percentage of workdays of women workers in the total workdays created has been 46.71%, which is more than the state average."
He said, "The responsibility of rozgar sevak (women mate) given to rural women under MNREGA is bringing a big change in their lives."

Chandra said as many as 852 women mates were employed in the district in the financial year 2024-25. The govt provides an honorarium of Rs 325 per day to these women mates. In this way, it turned out to be a source of additional income for them along with their household work.
Namrata Devi, a resident of Arjun Patti Gram Panchayat of Handia development block of the district, says that her husband Akhilesh works in a rubber factory, but the basic needs of the house were not met.
After being appointed to the job of a mahila mate in MNREGA, she is able to get extra money every month and manages the house smoothly.
Sushila Devi, a resident of Jagua Sodha Gram Panchayat of Handia development Khand, claims, "Despite her work as a welder, the education of two children and household expenses were not met with this amount." She said that with the income she gets from MNREGA mate, she is able to cover the education expenses of her children.
