PM Kisan Yojana: If you are a beneficiary of PM Kisan Yojana and want your next installment without any delay then complete your eKYC as early as possible. According to reports, all the beneficiaries of PM Kisan have been asked to complete the eKYC before 31 March 2022 so that the next installment can be transferred in their bank accounts.
If the eKYC is not completed then the government may not send Rs. 2000 in your bank account. It must be noted that few months back the Centre had made eKYC mandatory for all the beneficiaries but due to some reasons, things were put on hold. But now the eKYC link has been activated on the official website so that farmers can complete their details.
Why is eKYC mandatory for PM Kisan
Last year, Central government had made eKYC mandatory for all the farmers registered under Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. The decision has been taken to prevent frauds/scams and ineligible people from taking the benefit of this scheme. The existing/old as well as new farmers must fill in the eKYC without any delay.
