AP CM YS Jagan Infusing Transparency With DBT In Development Initiatives Dec 22, 2020, 14:54 IST AMARAVATI: Direct Benefit transfer (DBT) has come in like a boon to the beneficiaries, with Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy’s proactive initiatives and transferring the money directly into the bank accounts of the beneficiaries, shunting out the role of middlemen and infusing transparency into the system in the purest form. Not very long ago, the system was different. Old, sick and disabled people, daily wage earners had to stand in the long queues to get their pension or other benefits from the disbursing offices and more often the biometric system fails to work or there would be no power supply and the person had to go home disappointed only for a replay of the scene on the next day.
