The application of RTI can act as a deterrent against misutilization of funds meant for rural development programmes. Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) aims to provide 100 days of guaranteed wage employment to every rural households18. Social Audit and pro-active disclosure are its prominent feature to ensure to transparency and accountability in the implementation act. However, If these tools are accompanied by active application of RTI,these can bridge the gap in the implementation of this historical legislation. Thus it can play a significant role in effective implementation of act and proper utilization of funds. Considering the advantages of RTI, it becomes clear that act need to be strengthened. The following

The rapid rise in the population of West Bengal has not been accompanied by significant economic growth. Indicators to show the same are low poverty rates, unemployment and low job growth rates. Local politicians tried to come into power by promising agricultural land to farmers. However, small land holdings were not enough for the locals to survive. Hence, the shift from agriculture to industrialisation was considered, which would give a chance to the locals to earn

THE GLOBAL ECONOMY has created a flexible labour market and the myth of ‘feminization of work’, in reality; it has led to unemployment and underemployment of women in India. One study puts female unemployment at six to seven times that of men. In the rural areas, 30 lakh women have lost jobs in agriculture and livestock. Women have lost 1, 45,000 jobs in the textiles sector during 1994-2000. Female underemployment is also increasing at a faster rate than for men. This article will concentrate on some aspects of women workers outside of the agriculture sector.

Some panchayats are run by local goons or the community caste heads. They bully people when someone raises questions of accounts and money spent. The Sarpanch or development officers are rarely forthcoming. Now, all resources and their distribution will have to be transparent on paper. The RTI Act specifies that citizens have a right to: request any information

Some disadvantaged groups in India which are identified on caste basis have been discriminated against for centuries, and are still not protected despite the numerous laws. These groups are to be provided with equality of opportunity and autonomy and more importantly a social safety net was needed – that is a boost or ladder is required so that the more advanced forms of equality can be introduced and society can be balanced. Constitution provided reservations for SC/ST‘s in this context and is called fair discrimination. The key point here in the practice of this is - there are no people from disadvantaged groups in the upper echelons of society, and as long as they do not have a percentage equal to their share in the population in these elite

Rural households need credit for a variety of reasons. They need credit to meet short-term requirements of working capital and for long-term investment in agriculture and other income-bearing activities. Agricultural and non-agricultural activities in rural areas typically are seasonal, and households need credit to smoothen out seasonal fluctuations in earnings and expenditure. Rural households, particularly those vulnerable to what appear to others to be minor shocks with respect to income and expenditure, need credit as an insurance against risk. In a society that has no law of free, compulsory and universal school education, no arrangements for free and universal preventive and curative health care, a weak system for the public distribution of food and very few general social security programmes, rural households need credit for different types of consumption. These include expenditure on food, housing, health and education. In the Indian context, another important purpose of borrowing is to meet expenses on a variety of social obligations and rituals.

Unpaid domestic work – from food preparation to care giving – directly affects the health and overall well being and quality of life of children and other household members. The need for women’s unpaid labour often increases with economic shocks, such as those associated with the AIDS pandemic or economic restructuring. Yet women's voices and lived experiences – whether as workers (paid and unpaid), citizens, or consumers – are still largely missing from debates on finance and development. Poor women do more unpaid work, work longer hours and may accept degrading working conditions during times of crisis, just to ensure that their families survive. Intergenerational gender gaps: The differences in the work patterns of men and women, and the 'invisibility' of work that is not included in national accounts, lead to lower entitlements to women than to men. Women’s lower access to resources and the lack of attention to gender in macroeconomic policy adds to the inequity, which, in turn, perpetuates gender gaps. For example, when girls reach adolescence they are typically expected to spend more time in household activities, while boys spend more time on farming or wage work. By the time girls and boys become adults; females generally work longer hours than males, have less experience in the labour force, earn less income and have less leisure, recreation or rest time. This has implications for investments in the next generation. If
