Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said the impossible was made possible by adding 21 crore people in the Jan Dhan Yojana.

The Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana helps to open bank accounts.

In his speech on the 70th Independence Day, the Prime Minister said adding people to the Jan Dhan Yojana was an impossible task as many were out of the mainstream.

Modi said the government was trying to link all government schemes with Aadhaar to avoid leakage.
