Over 54.5 Crore Jan Dhan Accounts Opened till Jan 15:
As of January 15, 2025, the Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana (PMJDY) has surpassed a significant milestone, with over 54.58 crore bank accounts opened. What makes this achievement even more remarkable is that 55.7% of these accounts belong to women, highlighting the scheme’s role in promoting financial inclusion, especially among marginalized communities. Since its launch in August 2014, PMJDY has transformed from a basic financial access initiative into a foundation for various government welfare programs, social security schemes, and digital transactions.
