Krishnagiri: Over 20,867 families in 50 project villages in the district have registered their names seeking employment under the National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme so far District Revenue Officer C. Nagarajan has said.
The district administration had made arrangements to take photographs of these people free of cost and issue identity cards to them.

A team of officials from District Rural Development agency were monitoring the registration process.
The administration asked the persons, who received their identity cards, to open a savings bank account in one of the nationalised bank branches.
