Banks and post offices have been asked by pension fund regulator PFRDA to open three to five accounts per branch under flagship Atal Pension Yojana during a week-long campaign beginning July 25.

There are more than 30 lakh subscribers registered in the APY scheme. As on June 30, more than one lakh bankers and post office officials were trained for the scheme.

To give further fillip to the scheme, PFRDA said it has planned ‘APY Pension Harmony Week’ during July 25 to 29.
