Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana (PM-KISAN) is a scheme launched by the Indian government to provide financial assistance to small and marginal farmers across the country. The scheme was launched in 2019 and aims to support farmers by providing them with a direct income support of ₹6,000 per annum.
Under the PM-KISAN scheme, eligible farmers are required to register themselves on the PM-Kisan portal to receive the benefits of the scheme. Once registered, farmers receive the installments of ₹2,000 each directly in their bank account every four months.
However, there have been instances where farmers have not received the installments on time or have faced issues with the processing of their payments. In such cases, farmers can inquire about the status of their payments by visiting the PM-KISAN portal and following the steps mentioned below:
1. Visit the official website of PM-KISAN (https://pmkisan.gov.in/).
2. Click on the ‘Farmers Corner’ option on the homepage.
3. Select the ‘Beneficiary Status’ option from the drop-down menu.
4. Enter your Aadhaar number, mobile number or account number to check the status of your payment.
5. Once you have entered the required details, click on the ‘Get Data’ button.
6. The page will display the status of your payment, along with the details of the installment(s) received.
In case you face any issues with the status of your payment, you can contact the PM-KISAN helpline number (155261) and seek assistance from the support team.
It is important to note that in case of any discrepancies in the registration details provided by the farmer, the payment may get delayed. Therefore, it is important to ensure that the registration details on the PM-KISAN portal are accurate and up-to-date.
In conclusion, the PM-KISAN scheme is a crucial initiative aimed at providing financial support to small and marginal farmers. The government has been taking various steps to streamline the payment process and ensure that farmers receive their installments on time. In case of any issues with the payment status, farmers can follow the aforementioned steps or contact the helpline number for assistance.
