PM Jan Dhan Yojana: The Modi administration introduced the PM Jan Dhan Yojana in 2014 to provide access to the financial system for those living in distant locations. The programme has numerous advantages, one of which is having access to banking services.
Any bank branch or Business Correspondent outlet will let an Indian person open a basic savings bank deposit account under the plan if they do not already have any other accounts. According to pooled data, the Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana has resulted in the opening of almost 47 crore accounts (PMJDY).
The government would give Jan Dhan account owners 10,000 rupees. There are other more benefits, including the availability of insurance up to Rs 1 lakh 30 000. Discover these programmes as soon as possible, then apply for 10,000 rupees.

The family of the account holder will receive Rs. 1 lakh in insurance benefits in the event of an accident fatality. On the other side, a cover sum of Rs 30,000 is provided if death occurs under regular circumstances.
