Banks to close inactive PM Jan-Dhan Yojana accounts? Here is what government said

The Department of Financial Services has denied instructing banks to close dormant Pradhan Mantri Jan-Dhan Yojana accounts, countering recent media reports. Instead, a three-month campaign has been initiated to promote the adoption of these accounts and related welfare schemes. Banks will also conduct re-KYC for due accounts, ensuring their operational status and continued benefits for account holders.
