• The objective of MGNREGA is to provide employment opportunities to the rural population and reduce distress migration.
• The use of technology has resulted in increased efficiency in the allocation and distribution of work under MGNREGA.
• However, there have been concerns raised about how technology is being used to target beneficiaries, which may lead to exclusion of some eligible persons.
• Moreover, the use of technology has reduced the involvement of local communities in the implementation of MGNREGA, which undermines its effectiveness in stopping distress migration as it de-emphasizes community participation.
• Also, technology has enabled the monitoring of the implementation of MGNREGA, which means that some bureaucrats may use this information to control the allocation of work and resources, which often results in negative outcomes for rural people.
• The proper use of technology can lead to greater transparency and accountability in the allocation and distribution of work under MGNREGA.
• To achieve the objectives of MGNREGA and ensure that the use of technology benefits the rural population, there needs to be better monitoring and evaluation of its implementation and greater involvement of local communities.

In summary, while technology can play a positive role in the implementation of MGNREGA, its use should not come at the cost of community participation and inclusion.
