About the Issue
|
|
The new year started with the announcement of the first phase of Direct Benefits Transfer (DBT) scheme rolled out in 20 districts of the country with 7 programmes under its ambit. The announcement has generated a lively debate on the impact of this scheme and its multiple dimensions. Similar schemes in various forms have been implemented in a number of countries in the world. We have had programmes like Bolsa Familia in Brazil, Oportunidades in Mexico,
Samrudhi Kosh in Sri Lanka. This kind of programme has also been launched in Bangladesh, Iran, Namibia and many other countries of Asia and Africa. The cash-transfer of benefits has existed in India too as in case of payment of scholarships, old age pensions etc. But the importance of this step lies in the fact that the government has for the first time decided to experiment with a paradigm shift in visualising the future of social security programmes to make them sustainable, targeted and free from wastage and corruption.
