Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana (PMJDY) was launched in 2014 by the government of India. The main aim of this scheme is to link people of all the sectors to the banking system. The scheme aims to make sure that every family/individual should
at least have one bank account. Through this scheme, every citizen could access all the financial subsidies passed by the government along with the banking schemes - directly by being on the grid, thereby eliminating the possibility of a middleman/contractor cheating them of their rightful dues.
