Difference between Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana (PMJJBY) and Suraksha Bima Yojana (PMSBY)
Many of our blog readers are getting confused in between the latest launched Government Social Security Schemes Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana (PMJJBY) and Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojana (PMSBY).
Since both of the schemes offer same insurance coverage with same mode of payment, people are not getting clear picture of the benefits of the schemes.
In this article I have tried to clarify the difference between both the schemes by putting it in a tabular form. Check out – Atal pension Yojana

Sir LIC KE BAARE ME JAANKARI DIJIYE MERI AGE 22 YEARS HAI, MUJHE KAUN SE LIC KHULWAANI CHAHIYE
Thanks for the info… it was crisp & easy to understand…
but why aadhar card is mandatory,
as supreme court judgement tells aadhar card is not compulsory
Insurance for all.
Nice initiative, every account holder can easily pay,merely by paying total sum ofRs 340 for both the scheme a person can insure his life.

thanks
Great Initiative by Govt…….however their should always be an online version for fulfilment. It is difficult to visit bank every week especially when they are clueless about things.
If one person join APY and doesn’t continue for his poor financial condition is he allow to withdraw his deposit or adjust his premium to a lower pension group ?
