Q1What is the minimum time limit for workers under MNREGA to get the wages for their work?
Explanation
Under MNREGA, the expected wage-payment period is a fortnight, which means payment should be made within 15 days of the work being done as treated in the official key. A week is shorter than the prescribed wage-payment window and is not the keyed answer. Three weeks would delay payment beyond the fortnight standard. A month is also too long for the wage-payment timeline under the scheme. The question therefore points to a fortnight as the correct time limit for workers to receive wages.
