NREGA job card list 2026: how to check your panchayat name list

By Ravi Prakash · Updated 10 June 2026 · 7 min read

अगर आपने MGNREGA के तहत काम के लिए apply किया है, तो आपके परिवार का नाम आपकी Gram Panchayat की Job Card List में होना चाहिए। इसे check करने के लिए किसी agent या office जाने की ज़रूरत नहीं। पूरी list official portal पर कुछ ही minutes में दिख जाती है, और यह guide हर step बताती है।

Quick answer

Official MGNREGA reports page पर जाएं, अपना State, फिर District, Block और Gram Panchayat चुनें। उस panchayat की Job Card List नाम और card number के साथ खुल जाएगी। यह बिल्कुल free है।

What the job card list actually is

The job card list is the register of every household in a gram panchayat that holds a NREGA job card. Each row is one family. Against each family you will see a job card number, the head of household and a link to that family's work and payment record.

Think of it as the attendance register for the whole village. If your family is registered, you are in this list. If you cannot find yourself, your registration may be pending or recorded under a slightly different spelling.

How to check the job card list, step by step

  1. Open the official portal. Visit nrega.nic.in and go to the reports section. This part of the site is public, so no login is needed.
  2. Choose the financial year, for example 2026-2027. Many people miss their name only because they picked an old year.
  3. Select your state, then district, then block, and finally your gram panchayat from the drop-downs.
  4. Open the job card register. The names load on screen.
  5. Find your household using the browser find option. Press Ctrl+F on a computer and type the head of family's name or your card number.
One thing to watch

The official site sometimes shows a security warning on the link. That is common for government sites. Always check the address ends in nic.in before you enter any details.

Reading the list: what each column means

ColumnWhat it means
Job card numberYour family's unique registration number, built from your state, district and panchayat codes.
Head of householdThe main applicant in whose name the card is issued.
CategorySC, ST or others, used only for record keeping.
ApplicantsHow many adult members of the family are listed for work.
Status / colourWhether the card is active and whether photos and employment are recorded.

Many state lists use colours. Green usually means work has been given and photos are uploaded, grey means the card is active, and yellow means a photo is still needed. Click a card number to open that family's full work and payment history.

If your name is not in the list

Do not panic. In most cases it is a small mistake. Work through these checks in order.

  1. Re-check the year and panchayat. A wrong selection is the most common reason a name seems missing.
  2. Try a spelling variation. Names get entered in different ways, so search a shorter part of the name.
  3. Search by card number if you have an old card.
  4. Visit the panchayat office and ask the rozgar sahayak to confirm whether your application is pending or rejected.

हिंदी में सारांश

अगर नाम नहीं मिल रहा तो साल और पंचायत दोबारा जांचें, नाम का छोटा हिस्सा सर्च करें, या ग्राम पंचायत कार्यालय में संपर्क करें।
