According to studies conducted by the State Bank of India, the rate of criminal activity and consumption of alcohol and tobacco products has fallen in states with more Jan Dhan accounts.

According to research, the Jan Dhan-Aadhaar-Mobile (JAM) trinity has allowed government subsidies to be efficiently channelled. It has also aided in the reduction of alcohol and tobacco consumption in rural regions.

According to the report, crime has decreased dramatically as the number of Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana (PMJDY) accounts and account balances has increased.
