 Review of literature

1. Garima Jain, Neeraj (2017)

Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana (PMJDY) is Narendra Modi Government flagship
programme launched to bring every section of the society within the ambit of
financial services such as availability of basic savings bank account, access to need-
based credit, remittance facility, insurance, and pension to the otherwise excluded
sections, i.e., weaker sections and low-income groups. In the truest sense, PMJDY
is a poverty eradication program and therefore the poor should nobe the biggest
beneficiary of the scheme.

Financial Inclusion is now innovative concept yet not new to researchers, policy
makers and academicians. Financial Inclusion simply means to create financial
system at ease for poor people of economy. Financial system excluded certain
segments of people in early stage of economic development. However, government
attempted to reach this segment by framing different policies but seemed to be
fruitless exercise due to lack of effective execution of policies. As a part of Financial
Inclusion, government of India introduced “Pradhanmantri Jan Dhan Yojna”. The
research has made attempt to study “Pradhanmantri Jan Dhan Yojna” with reference
to its salient features, achievements and future in Indian economy.

Education has been considered as an important tool for all sorts of issues. This paper
intends to study the relationship between educational level, PMJDY awareness and
financial inclusion in the district of Puri, Odisha. Data were collected with the help
of a survey technique from 348 respondents in both rural and urban areas of Puri
district. Multistage purposive sampling method was used. Descriptive statistics of
the data collected reveals that financial awareness/financial inclusion increases with
education level. It is seen that respondents with primary education and below
secondary education have more financial inclusion and PMJDY awareness due to
the reason that most of the respondents belong to that category. It is also evident that
households with graduation and above are also more likely to be financially aware
and financially included. However, to have a complete understanding

For Policymakers Financial inclusion is a buzzword the policymakers and
governments for a long time. Attempts have been made by the policymakers and
financial institutions to bring a large no of sections from the rural population to be a
part of the banking system having realized that financial inclusion is the essence for
sustainable economic growth & in order to develop a country like India. Inclusive
growth becomes impossible without financial inclusion. Financial inclusion is also
must for the economic development of the country. In order to reduce the degree of
“financial untouchability” the new government has come up with a big bang action
plan which is popularly known as “Pradhan Mantri Jan-Dhan Yojana”. It’s mega
financial inclusion plan for the objective to cover all the households in the country
with various banking facilities along with inbuilt insurance coverage. The present
paper is an attempt to highlight the impacts of total saving deposits with commercial
banks on Indian GDP in Context with Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojna. The study is
purely based on secondary data which covers 40 financial years

7. Varun Saini1& Yashika Guleria

Since independence, India’s policy measures have basically followed two fold
objectives for its planned economic growth and development. The first one is
moving ahead to a transformative and technologically advanced economy and the
second one being established in a pattern of social order based on the principle of
distributive justice and providing equal opportunities for growth to the masses. No
doubt, economic reforms implemented over the past few decades have remained
successful in enhancing India’s potential on many developmental forefronts but, still
it has not succeeded in alleviating the poverty. Poverty can be eradicated from its
roots only when the poor starts contributing in the growth process through its
productive involvement. Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana (PMJDY) is an
innovative and efficacious measure of financial inclusion, which is designed to
eliminate the problem of “Financial Untouchability” by ensuring distributive justice
to the poor and vulnerable sections of the society.

8. Ganesan Ravichandran, S Vanitha

The Indian government has launched many Financial Services schemes and policies
to reduce the degree of Financial Inclusion, black money and to develop the
economic growth of the country. The prime minister of India ‘ShriNarandraModi’
has recently introduced the most valuable investment scheme namely, PMJDY
(PradhanMantri Jan DhanYojana). The study has been analysed with primary data
collected to know the awareness about the PMJDY in Trichirappalli district. The
study found out that the socio economic factors were assisting to create the
awareness of PMJDY scheme. It is suggested that the government need not only
create accounts but also to develop the awareness to use this facility effectively in
order to avoid them from becoming inactive.

Financial inclusion is the buzzword for the Government of India for attempting
towards inclusive growth." Pradhan Mantri Jan-Dhan Yojana (PMJDY)" is the
national mission of Government of India for achieving the goal for financial
inclusion. This national project has a determined goal of ensuring all the households
in the country should have a bank account and access to all the financial services
provided by the banks. This is an empirical study that attempts to capture the
perception of customers on PMJDY towards operationalization of bank account. The
result obtained on multiple regression analysis from the various constructs on
operationalization of PMJDY account indicate that advertisement, economic
development are most important predictor of the dependent variable whereas bank
employee behaviour and customer satisfaction have less impact on the
operationalization of PMJDY account. The outcome of this research throws some
insight to understand the bank customer’s perception towards operationalization of
PMJDY account which will be supportive to management practitioners, bank
authorities and policy makers to design appropriate marketing strategies.

It is indeed a matter of serious concern that despite tremendous growth of banking
sector in India—both horizontally and vertically, a large section of Indian population
continues to remain unbanked even after attaining 67 years of our Independence.
Though, in recent years the Indian Government and the Reserve Bank of India have
been pushing the concept of financial inclusion, but no palpable effect could be seen
in the plight of these financially vulnerable people.

12. SW Unnamalai (2015)

Since independence numbers of initiatives have been taken by our Government for
financial inclusion. Even though the number of initiatives a large portion of our
population still remains unbanked. Majority of our population both in rural and
urban still remains excluded from the banking activities. Till now the objective of
financial inclusion has never been achieved. The Financial inclusion plan aims to
provide easy access of the financial services at affordable cost automatically it brings
them in to the mainstream of financial sector.

13. Varsha Gupta (2015)

The recent scheme, Pradhan Mantri Jan-Dhan Yojana (PMJDY), launched by the
Indian Prime Minister, is a step ahead for strengthening financial inclusion practices
in the country. PMJDY is a national mission for financial inclusion to ensure access
to financial services, namely, banking/savings and deposit accounts, remittance,
credit, insurance, pension, etc. in an affordable manner. This research note examines
the progress in financial inclusion plans over the last five years; analyzes the

contribution of the banks towards achievement of goals set under PMJDY; and

objectives.

Financial inclusion has been a buzzword for the policymakers and governments for
a long time. Despite tremendous growth of banking sector in India both horizontally
and vertically, a large section of Indian population continues to remain unbanked
even after attaining 67 years of our Independence. To address the issue of financial
exclusion and long drawn financial sufferings, Prime Minister Narendra Modi
announced a new scheme in his Independence Day speech on 15th Aug 2014, and
called it as the National Mission on Financial Inclusion …
