Good news for the beneficiaries of PM Kisan Yojana. According to several media reports, this time farmers may get the 12th installment of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana early.
Reports said that the next installment of Rs 2000 can be sent to the farmers' account in September. Hence before that, it is mandatory for them to complete the e-KYC otherwise, they may not get the money.
Under Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana, over 12 crore farmers in India are given financial assistance of Rs 6000 every year. The amount is directly transferred to farmers' accounts after every four months. So far, the government has transferred eleven installments to the farmers' account and soon will transfer the 12th installment.
PM Kisan e-KYC Last Date
To prevent irregularities and fraud, the Central government has made e-KYC mandatory for farmers taking benefits of PM Kisan Yojana.
Earlier the government had kept the deadline for PM Kisan e-KYC till 31 May 2022, which has been extended to 31 July 2022. If the beneficiaries do not complete the eKYC then the next installment will not be sent to their account.
