Housing funds for SC/ST beneficiaries to be directly transferred to bank accounts
GK and monthly revision
Housing funds for SC/ST beneficiaries to be given directly: Minister
The Union Minister announced that housing funds for SC/ST beneficiaries will be directly transferred to their accounts, bypassing the Life Mission agency. This decision was made during the launch of Bharatiya Dalit Congress' 100-day outreach programme. The move aims to ensure transparency, eliminate intermediaries, and accelerate fund disbursement under housing schemes for marginalized communities. It reflects the government's focus on direct benefit transfer (DBT) architecture and social justice delivery mechanisms.
