On February 28, Prime Minister Narendra Modi transferred the 16th installment of Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana to the bank accounts of farmers. Under the PM Kisan Yojana, the central government deposits ₹2,000 every four months into the accounts of eligible farmers, giving a total annual financial assistance of ₹6,000. Farmers are now eagerly waiting for the 17th installment of PM Kisan Yojana.
According to media reports, the 17th installment is expected to be released by the end of June or the beginning of July. However, the government has not yet given any official information about the exact date of the next installment.
A common question among farmers is whether both husband and wife in a family can get benefits from PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana.
If you are curious about it, here is the information: As per the rules of Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana, both husband and wife in the same family cannot avail the benefits together. Only one member per family is eligible for the benefits of this scheme, and it is provided to the family member in whose name the land is registered.
The Central Government had started the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana a few years ago to strengthen the farmers financially. Under this scheme, the government provides ₹6,000 annually to farmers, with ₹2,000 deposited every four months.
PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana was launched on February 24, 2019, to provide financial assistance to farmers. It is important for farmers to complete the e-KYC and land record verification processes as soon as possible to receive the 17th installment of PM Kisan Yojana.
