16. Controversies and criticisms A major criticism of the MNREGA is that a lot of money disbursed by the government gets siphoned off by middlemen , thus leaving a number of MGNREGA workers either with unpaid wages or less than standard wages. In Mahuadand, Jharkhand , most of the people who had worked under the MGNREGA did not get paid, while some either got paid less than stipulated or were given 5 kg of rice by private contractors instead. The big farmer’s point of view can be summed up as follows: landless laborer's are lazy and they don’t want to work on farms as they can get money without doing anything at NREGA worksites NREGA has been criticized for leakages and corrupt implementation. It has been alleged that individuals have received benefits and work payments for work that they have not done, or have done only on paper, or are not poor. In 2014-15, only 28% of the payments were made on time to workers. Following the allegations of corruption in the scheme, NDA government ordered a re-evaluation of the scheme in 2015. [2]
