On the occasion of Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana's (PMJDY) 11th anniversary, Prime Minister Narendra Modi lauded the scheme's impact over the years.
"When the last mile is financially connected, the entire nation moves forward together. That is exactly what the PM Jan Dhan Yojana achieved. It enhanced dignity and gave people the power to script their own destiny," Modi said on a social media post.
Over 56 crore Jan Dhan accounts have been opened in the last 11 years under the PMJDY, with a total deposit balance of Rs. 2.68 lakh crore, Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman stated on Thursday.
