Rajasthan Mukhyamantri Shahri Rojgar Guarantee Yojana (MSRGY): A Quick Overview

The Rajasthan Mukhyamantri Shahri Rojgar Guarantee Yojana (MSRGY) gives wage employment to eligible families living in urban areas of Rajasthan. It is run by the Local Self Government Department and engages residents in public development, sanitation, maintenance and environmental work in their own cities and towns.

Background and Renaming

The scheme was launched in 2022 as the Indira Gandhi Urban Employment Guarantee Scheme. It was renamed MSRGY through an order dated 25 November 2024. Initially it guaranteed 100 days of work per family each year. From 1 April 2023, this was raised to 125 days. It is meant for urban households; rural households are covered by the Central Government’s Viksit Bharat–Guarantee for Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission (Gramin), earlier called MGNREGA.

Key Benefits

  • Up to 125 days of guaranteed wage employment per family every year
  • Work must be provided within 15 days of a work demand
  • Wages paid directly to the worker’s bank account (DBT) every 15 days
  • Equal wages for men and women doing the same work
  • A free job card valid for 5 years, covering the whole family
  • Work allotted, with priority, in the applicant’s own ward or zone
  • Worksite facilities: drinking water, first aid, summer shade and a work-information display board
  • Legal backing under the Rajasthan Minimum Guaranteed Income Act, 2023
  • Migrant workers may be covered only in emergencies such as a pandemic or disaster
