The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana (PM-Kisan) is a central government scheme that aims to provide financial support to the farmers in India. Under this scheme, eligible farmers receive a fixed income support of Rs 6000 per year in three equal installments. The scheme was launched in February 2019 with the objective of ensuring a minimum income to all the small and marginal farmers across the country.
In order to avail the benefits of the PM-Kisan scheme, farmers need to register themselves with the scheme. The registration process is quite simple and can be done either online or offline. Farmers can visit the official website of the PM-Kisan scheme and fill in the necessary details to register themselves. They need to provide information such as their Aadhaar number, bank account details, and landholding details. Once the registration is complete, the farmers will start receiving the income support directly in their bank accounts.
Apart from the online registration, farmers can also visit the nearest Common Service Centers (CSCs) or authorized Aadhaar service centers to register for the scheme. They can also visit the local agriculture department offices or the nearest bank branches to complete the registration process.
It is important for the farmers to ensure that all the information provided during the registration process is accurate and up to date. Any discrepancy in the information provided can lead to the rejection of their application for the PM-Kisan scheme.
The PM-Kisan scheme has been a boon for the farmers, especially during the tough times of the COVID-19 pandemic. The financial support provided under this scheme has helped many farmers meet their agricultural expenses and improve their livelihood. It is important for all the eligible farmers to register themselves for the PM-Kisan scheme and avail the benefits provided by the government.
