How to get the most out of the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana
The Narendra Modi government launched the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-Kisan) scheme in February 2019. The scheme is designed to provide financial support to small and marginal farmers across the country. Under the scheme, each farmer will receive a direct benefit transfer of Rs. 6000 per year, in three equal installments of Rs. 2000 each. The first installment will be paid in April, the second in July, and the third in October.
The scheme is expected to benefit around 12 crore farmers and cost the government Rs 75,000 crore per year. It is one of the largest welfare schemes launched by the Modi government and is seen as an attempt to win over farmers ahead of the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.
