PoliticsPM Modi: DBT Prevented Leakage of Rs 5 Lakh Crore Government Funds
Prime Minister Narendra Modi stated that the Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) system has prevented leakage of about Rs 5 lakh crore of government money by directly transferring subsidies and welfare funds to beneficiaries' bank accounts. Since its introduction in 2013 and nationwide expansion in 2014, DBT has transferred nearly Rs 50 lakh crore, reducing fraud and ensuring funds reach rightful recipients through Jan Dhan accounts, Aadhaar, and mobile technology.
