    Solution

    The bank account comes with a RuPay debit card with a built-in accidental insurance cover of Rs. 1 lakh. During the launch on 28.08.14 in New Delhi, the Hon’ble Prime Minister also announced a life cover of Rs. 30,000/- for those subscribing to a bank account with a RuPay debit card before 26th January 2015 to complement the Rs. 1 lakh accident insurance cover. This life insurance cover of Rs. 30,000/- under Pradhan Mantri Jan DhanYojana, gives life insurance cover on the death of the life assured, due to any reason, to the deceased’s family. The scheme aims to provide security to families from economically weaker sections who cannot afford direct purchase of such insurance. The premium subscription for the life cover under PMJDY is borne by the Government of India.
