Corruption
Direct Benefit Transfer scheme (PAHAL)::
The finance ministry advised that a direct benefit transfer scheme for all theLPG gas cylinder subscribers will be able to stop the ongoing corruption in providing subsidy to the beneficiaries!
It was proposed that subsidies on cooking gas and kerosene will be transferreddirectly to the bank account of beneficiaries.
Under this scheme,once a person links his bank account with the gas connection,he will be entitled to get the subsidy directly into his bank account(mind you!.99.5% families have a bank account now! ;)
This will mark a full stop to the corruption that was going in distributing subsidies to the gas account holders!

Social Security - A Caring Government, Passionate Society
Swachh Bharat
A brilliant event manager,” L K Advani said of former protégé Narendra Modi in April. On October 2, Modi showed how he is arguably the most-skilled mass communicator among Indian leaders.
He chose Mahatma Gandhi’s birth anniversary to pick up a broom and launch the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan. Few remembered how Swachh Bharat was in fact the repackaged Nirmal Bharat sanitation programmes launched by the Atal Bihari Vajpayee-led NDA government and Manmohan Singh-led UPA governments.
But Modi is the first PM to take up the cause of cleanliness with such conviction and vigour. He has attempted to make a mass movement out of an issue that affects not only people’s health but is also an attack on social ills like untouchability and manual scavenging.
Jan Dhan Yojana
With a substantial section of society still outside the ambit of the formal financial system, the recent initiative which aims to bring the excluded into the banking system over the next few years is a laudable one.
But legitimate concerns remain. For one, access to banking services may not translate to usage as the poor may simply opt against engaging with the system.
Concerns also exist about the financial viability of maintaining such accounts. But if coverage is extended, especially to the rural poor, then in conjunction with the Aadhaar platform, it could facilitate a shift towards cash transfers.
