Panaji: Minister for social welfare Subhash Phal Dessai said that out of 1.3 lakh beneficiaries of the Dayanand Social Security Scheme (DSSS), govt has deleted the names of 6,000 beneficiaries. Those whose names have been struck down, Phal Dessai said were either not alive or bogus. With this move, new slots have opened up that can be utilised by selecting eligible applicants from the waiting list.
