Will provide gas connections to 5 crore poor families, explains PM Modi
-In the next three years, we want to provide gas connections to 5 crore poor families. It hasn't been 10 months of the scheme and we have already provided connections to one crore households.
-We also transfer the subsidy directly into their bank accounts.
-When we opened bank accounts of the poor, they said, "You've opened accounts but there is no money". But we transferred the subsidy directly to accounts.
-Through Direct Benefit Transfer, we identified ghost accounts and saved a lot of money.
