In what is being seen as UPA-II's NREGA moment, in a blend of good economics and good politics, the Prime Minister this evening formally announced direct cash transfers to beneficiaries of subsidies in food, fuel and fertilisers. NREGA, the rural employment guarantee scheme, is widely acknowledged to have been one of the main reasons for its return to power for the second time in 2009.
