Banks in Mysore hold DBT campaign to link Aadhaar

Banks in Mysore have stepped up efforts to link bank accounts of LPG consumers with their Aadhaar numbers against the background of criticism by some consumers on non-transfer of direct benefit because of banks' failure to seed their accounts.

The Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) scheme was launched in Mysore district on July 1 and the process of money transfer to LPG consumers has begun. However, there are some complaints over non-transfer of money to their accounts though they have submitted all the documents to the banks as well as LPG suppliers.
