Practice questions
Q1Which statement correctly describes how the scheme name should be understood in current administration?
A Indira Gandhi Urban Employment Guarantee Scheme is the syllabus-listed name, while Mukhyamantri Shahri Rojgar Guarantee Yojana is the current official portal name of the same urban wage-employment scheme.
B Indira Gandhi Urban Employment Guarantee Scheme is a rural employment law now implemented under MGNREGA.
C Mukhyamantri Shahri Rojgar Guarantee Yojana is a separate permanent government recruitment programme for urban youth.
D The current official portal has stopped using the urban employment guarantee framework and lists only skill-training benefits.
Explanation The current official portal uses Mukhyamantri Shahri Rojgar Guarantee Yojana for the urban wage-employment scheme, while the older listed name remains Indira Gandhi Urban Employment Guarantee Scheme. The traps confuse it with MGNREGA, permanent recruitment or skill training, none of which describes the portal scheme.
Q2Which one of the following would be outside the scheme logic of permissible IGUEGS works?
A Plantation and maintenance of public parks in an urban local body area
B Cleaning or desilting an urban water-conservation structure such as a pond or stepwell
C Appointment of registered workers as permanent municipal employees
D Sanitation-linked work such as drain cleaning or public-space cleaning
Explanation Permissible IGUEGS works include environmental protection, plantation, park maintenance, sanitation-linked work and water conservation. Permanent municipal appointment is a recruitment outcome, while the scheme is urban wage employment through approved civic works.
Q3Which sequence best represents the administrative chain by which an IGUEGS registration moves toward wage payment?
A Work allotment, registration, job card, grievance handling, attendance, payment
B Registration, work demand, payment, job card, attendance, grievance handling
C Job card, payment, registration, work demand, attendance, work allotment
D Registration, job card, work demand, work allotment, attendance or muster, payment and grievance handling
Explanation The administrative chain is registration, job card, work demand, work allotment, attendance or muster, payment and grievance handling. The other sequences place payment or allotment before the records that make them administratively possible.
Q4Arrange the administrative chain of work under IGUEGS in the correct order.
A Registration, job card, work demand, work allotment, attendance or muster, payment and grievance handling
B Permanent appointment, probation, salary fixation, promotion and pension
C Rural panchayat selection, rural worksite opening, rural muster and rural development payment
D Contractor tender, private labour hiring, private attendance and contractor bill payment
Explanation The administrative chain is registration, job card, demand, allotment, attendance or muster, payment and grievance handling. The distractors recast the scheme as service recruitment, rural execution or contractor hiring, which breaks the urban wage-employment control logic.
Q5Which statement best describes the function of a muster roll under IGUEGS?
A It permanently appoints the worker to the urban local body.
B It replaces Jan Aadhaar during the application stage.
C It is the attendance and worksite record used to verify labour days and support wage payment.
D It is a list of rural works sanctioned under MGNREGA.
Explanation A muster roll is the attendance and worksite record used to verify labour days and support wage payment. It does not replace Jan Aadhaar, create permanent employment or convert the scheme into a rural MGNREGA works list.
