PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana: The Government can release the 11th installment of PM Kisan Yojana anytime hence all eligible farmers should be ready with the necessary documents including eKYC to avail the benefit of the scheme.
In 2021, the government released the installment on 14 May, hence, it is expected that this year too, it will release the funds around the same period. However, the farmers must note if they do not complete e-KYC, they will not get the next installment of Rs. 2000.
Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana is a central government scheme with 100 percent funding from the Centre. Under the scheme, farmers are given Rs 6000 every year. The funds are directly transferred to farmers’ account in three equal installments of Rs 2000 each.
It must be noted that the update in eKYC is done through an Aadhaar-based OTP authentication system. The Aadhaar-based OTP authentication that was temporarily suspended has been started again at the official PM Kisan portal.
