PM Kisan Yojana: If you are a beneficiary of PM Kisan Yojana and want your next installment without any delay then complete the eKYC as early as possible. According to reports, all the beneficiaries of PM Kisan have to complete the eKYC before 31 May 2022 so that the next installment can be transferred to their bank accounts.
Union Agriculture Minister, Narendra Tomar recently announced that Prime Minister Modi will release the 11th installment on 31 May 2022. This means farmers who complete the eKYC before the deadline will only get the money in their bank accounts.
Why is eKYC mandatory for PM Kisan
Last year, the Central government had made eKYC mandatory for all the farmers registered under Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. The decision was taken to prevent frauds/scams and ineligible people from taking the benefit of this scheme.
The existing/old as well as new farmers have to fill in the eKYC without any delay.
