Jawhar Sircar (Rajya Sabha) asking during Question Hour why no fund has been given under MGNREGA to Bengal this year and why the funds are generally being reduced gradually

Sir, as it will appear from the reply, there has been a gross injustice against West Bengal that has not been given even one paisa under NREGA this year, not a single paisa, against Rs. 7,500 crores given last year! So, I wanted to know from the hon. Minister why such a special favour has been meted out, why such a special spite has been meted out in spite of the fact that the Chief Minister has ordered that every Job Card be verified.
