NREGA: work by machine but money taken out for people

Prakash Gupta from Sarguja, Chhattisgarh says that instead of villagers, machines are being used to do work under MNREGA. A false muster has been created and the officials and bank employees for 65 workers and have siphoned off Rs 1.65 laks whereas the entire work was done by machines. People have given a memorandum to the collector complaining about it but there is no action so far. For more Prakash can be reached at 07697852665
