The new Viksit Bharat Guarantee for Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission Gramin (VB G-RAM-G) Act is presented as an upgrade to the MGNREGA, promising 125 workdays instead of 100. However, critics argue the new law shifts decision-making power from citizens to the Centre, making employment a discretionary scheme rather than a justiciable right. This change is seen by some as undermining federalism and creating uncertainty, as the government can now decide where, when, and to whom employment is provided.
