As the world transitions towards digitalization, the Indian Government has also taken a step forward to implement E-KYC for the Pradhanmantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. This scheme is aimed to benefit various farmers across the country.
Pradhanmantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana is a scheme that provides financial assistance of Rs. 6000 per annum to farmers across the country, under which Rs. 2000 is deposited in their bank accounts, in three installments, every year. The scheme was introduced in 2018, and has been providing immense benefits to the farmers ever since.
However, the process of documentation for the scheme was complex and time-consuming. The E-KYC initiative by the government aims to simplify the documentation process and make it online, thus benefiting the farmers – the end-users of the scheme.
Under the E-KYC initiative, farmers can now register online by providing their Aadhaar number, to get access to the PM-Kisan Samman Nidhi Scheme benefits. The E-KYC process is quick, efficient, and secure. Farmers can now register online through their mobile phones, laptops or desktops by following the steps mandated by the government. They can download the mobile application or use the official website of the scheme to register.
This initiative has revolutionized the PM-Kisan scheme by making it easily accessible to farmers across the country, even in remote areas where it was difficult to access documentation. With E-KYC, farmers can now apply online and get their documents verified without any hassle. They can now register from the comfort of their homes, without having to visit any government offices or banks.
The E-KYC initiative is an example of how technology is being embraced in the agriculture sector. It has enabled farmers to easily access the scheme and take advantage of the benefits provided by it. With this initiative, the government aims to reach out to all the eligible farmers and bring them under the ambit of the PM-Kisan Samman Nidhi Scheme, thus creating a more robust agriculture sector in the country.
In conclusion, the E-KYC initiative for the Pradhanmantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana has revolutionized the way farmers register for the scheme. With its efficient and secure system, farmers can now access the scheme benefits from anywhere in the country, making it more inclusive and accessible. This initiative is a significant step towards the digitization of the agriculture sector of the country and will go a long way in providing relief to farmers across the country.
