a. Scheme wise data on physical and financial status of implementation
of DBT is attached as Annexure I and II.
b. Following are some of the difficulties being faced in the process
of implementing DBT:
# Low penetration of Aadhaar especially in Districts allocated to RGI.
# Low pace of seeding of Aadhaar into bank Databases and data upload by
banks onto NPCI mapper.
# Process re-engineering of schemes identified under DBT to enable transfer
of funds directly from the concerned Ministries to the Aadhaar enabled
bank account of the beneficiary remains to be achieved.
c. Regular review and follow –up meetings are being held with the
concerned central Ministries, Banks, UIDAI, NPCI, RGI etc. to resolve
issues being faced in implementing DBT. Inter-ministerial consultations
