In order to ensure effective implementation of the NREGS and to make it corruption-free, Centre for Environment and Food Security (CEFS) has invoked and utilised the powers and might of all the four major pillars of Indian democracy- Executive, Legislature, Judiciary and Press. The Centre for Environment and Food Security (CEFS) survey reports on NREGS implementation in Orissa and Madhya Pradesh(M P) have made an unprecedented impact on the ground and all the four players have been stirred into action. There are already over 500 news stories/articles ( English,Hindi and Oriya) based on CEFS reports. There have been many official enquiries/ investigations conducted to look into the veracity of the CEFS survey reports on the implementation of the NREGS in Orissa and MP . The Central Government instructed CAG (Comptroller and Auditor General of India) to conduct a special enquiry into Rs 500 crore NREGS scam in Orissa uncovered by CEFS survey. The Central Government also asked the Government of Orissa to conduct an official enquiry into the allegations of CEFS report and submit it to the Central Government . The Government of Orissa ordered a thorough probe of the performance of NREGS by Hyderabad-based NIRD (National Institute of Rural Development). The Central Employment Guarantee Council (CEGC) also visited Orissa to carry out its own enquiries/evaluations. There have been many questions in Parliament regarding CEFS survey reports
