PMKSNY: Only These Farmers Will Receive the Next Installment of PM Kisan Yojana—Know the Full Details

The Indian government runs several schemes aimed at supporting economically weaker sections, one of which is the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. This scheme provides eligible farmers with ₹6,000 annually, distributed in three installments. So far, 17 installments have been credited to farmers' accounts, and many are eagerly waiting for the 18th installment. However, certain issues have caused delays. Let’s explore these reasons:

Delayed Installments:

A significant number of farmers have not yet received the 17th installment of the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. The delay is often due to incomplete e-KYC or other administrative challenges.

Importance of e-KYC:

To continue receiving future installments, completing the e-KYC process for the scheme is crucial.

Eligibility Criteria:

1. Citizenship: The farmer must be an Indian citizen.
2. Land Ownership: The farmer should own land, but the total land area must not exceed a specified limit.
3. Government Job: No family member should hold a government job.
4. Income Limit: The family's income should not exceed ₹2 lakh annually.

Reasons for Rejected Applications:

1. Application Issues: Farmers who either did not apply or whose applications were rejected have not received previous installments.
2. Eligibility Violations: Those who failed to meet the eligibility criteria or violated the scheme’s terms have missed out on the benefits.

Next Steps:

1. Check Beneficiary Status: Verify your status on the official PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana website.
2. Apply if Necessary: If you are not listed as a beneficiary, apply through the official website to receive future installments.
