Amaravati: Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) is a boon to the beneficiaries, with Chief Minister Y S 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.

The 3,648-km Praja Sankalpa Yatra by Jagan has changed the course of governance and the DBT has taken over and disbursing became easy and transparent. The disbursement is going on beyond caste, creed, religion or political affiliation and is being done on saturation mode with utter sincerity and fairness.

The Chief Minister, during the launch of every scheme, makes it a point to mention that if eligible persons are left out, they can apply within one month and their claim will be considered.

Prominent schemes under DBT for 2020 include Ammavodi, YSR Kapu Nestham, YSR Cheyutha, YSR Matsyakara Bharosa, Jaganannna Vasati Deevena, Jaganannna Vidya Deevena, YSR Vahana Mitra, YSR Netanna Nestam, Jagananna Chedodu, YSR Aasara, YSR Sunna Vaddi (Farmers), YSR Sunna Vaddi (Self Help Groups), MSME Restart, One time financial assistance to Archakas, Imams, Pastors and Mouzams, YSR Rythu Bharosa, YSR Free Crop Insurance (Kharif) and YSR Pension Kanuka.
