Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Monday urged officials to keep middlemen outside their office.
“Do not allow them inside your office. Ask them to go out if they come. To prevent harassment from middlemen, direct benefit transfer (DBT) was introduced in guarantee schemes,” he said, speaking after inaugurating the renovated building of the KAS Officers’ Association.
