Abstract: Abstract India achieved impressively high growth rate in GDP in the Eighth, Ninth and Tenth Five Year Plans that were, however, socially exclusionary (Government of India, 2007). It was obtained mainly from tertiary and secondary sectors. It increased income inequality, and widened rural-urban divide and regional disparities. The Eleventh Plan had envisaged MGNREGA as an important programme for promoting employment-centric inclusive growth and development in India. More than one and a half decades of its working have amply demonstrated its utility in promoting inclusive growth and development that can be further enhanced by carrying out some specific suggestions spelt out in this chapter.
