The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN) Scheme, was launched by PM Narendra Modi in 2019, aims to provide income support to all landholder farmer families across the country with cultivable land, subject to certain exclusions.
PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Scheme: All landholding farmers families, which have cultivable landholding in their names are eligible to get benefit under the scheme.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi had on 17th October released the 12th instalment of financial benefit of Rs 2,000 under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN). However, as per a news report, nearly 21 lakh farmers in Uttar Pradesh who are ineligible for PM Kisan benefit, have got the money being transferred in their bank account.
