          Patna,(BiharTimes): Thanks to the block programme officers and panchayat rozgar   sevaks as high as 20 lakh labourers have been issued two job cards under MNREGA   schemes in Bihar.
 With 96,855 double job cards Muzaffarpur district tops   the list. This irregularity was detected when the records were being uploaded on   the Management Information System.
 |  In all 1.25 crores labouers have been given job cards in Bihar. The petition in   this regard is given in panchayat. Thus it is the duty of the panchayats to   cross-check the names before registering and issuing the job-cards. 
 Job   cards are given to labourers as it is on its basis that they get work, wages and   unemployment allowance. The life of job-card is five years. It is the duty of   panchayat to give job cards and see to it that no job-cards are issued to one   person. Besides, it is the duty of panchayat rozgar sevaks and block programme   officers to monitor the issuance of job-cards. But none of them cross-checked   the records before issuing the job-cards.
