1. Integrated Rural Development Programme:

The Integrated Rural Development Programme (IRDP), which was introduced in 1978-79 and universalized from 2nd October, 1980, aimed at providing assistance to the rural poor in the form of subsidy and bank credit for productive employment opportunities through successive plan periods.


Jawahar Rozgar Yojana/Jawahar Gram Samriddhi Yojana:

Under the Wage Employment Programmes, the National Rural Employment Programme (NREP) and Rural Landless Employment Guarantee Programme (RLEGP) were started in sixth and seventh plans. The NREP and RLEGP were merged in April 1989, under Jawahar Rozgar Yojana (JRY). The JRY was meant to generate meaningful employment opportunities for the unemployed and underemployed in rural areas through the crea­tion of economic infrastructure and community and social assets.


Employment Assurance Scheme:

The Employment Assurance Scheme (EAS) was launched on 2nd October, 1993, cover­ing 1,778 drought-prone, desert, tribal and hill area blocks. It was later extended to all the blocks in 1997-98. The EAS was designed to provide employment in the form of manual work in the lean of agricultural season.
