1. MGNREGA in ODISHA
Shall we think Big

2. Is this what the Odia Elite Thinks?
Cheap rice through PDS makes people lazy!
MGNREGA leads to lazy workers !
Cheap Rice and MGNREGA together jack up rural wages !
MGNREGA has greater leakage than other programmes. (remember 2G and CWG? Has anyone called for closing down Mobile Services or Sports Programmes?)

3. Odia Worker among the Best
Truly as Odia workers are in demand everywhere across India and increasingly across the globe, it seems the middle class has failed the workers rather than vice versa.
When Odisha’s elite was less laidback Odia workers built some of the best structures ever built in India
