There’s good news for millions of farmers: the central government has released the installments ahead of schedule to farmers in Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab, Uttarakhand, and Himachal Pradesh, considering the losses caused by heavy rains, floods, and landslides. Meanwhile, the Modi government on October 11th provided another major gift to farmers by launching agricultural projects worth over ₹42,000 crore. But the question remains: when will the ₹2,000 reach the accounts of farmers in other states, with only nine days left for Diwali?
PM Kisan 21st Installment
Millions of farmers are anxious about the 21st installment of the PM Kisan Yojana. Looking at previous years’ payment schedules, this installment has been delayed. In 2023, this installment was released on November 15th, and in 2024, the 18th installment was released on October 5th. According to this pattern, the 21st installment should have arrived by now. However, so far, only farmers in four states—Punjab, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, and Jammu and Kashmir—have received the funds. Farmers in the remaining states are still waiting.
Hope for Diwali
While no official date has been announced by the government, several reliable media reports indicate that the ₹2,000 payment could be deposited into farmers’ accounts before Diwali, i.e., October 20, 2025. This payment will provide significant financial relief to farmers during the festive season.
Check your status immediately
Fulfilling certain conditions is essential to avail the benefits of the PM Kisan Yojana. Even a small mistake could deprive you of this installment. Farmers who have not yet completed their e-KYC, whose Aadhaar card is not linked to their bank account, whose IFSC code is incorrect, or whose bank account has been closed may be deprived of this installment. Additionally, any errors in your personal details may also delay the fund transfer. Farmers who have completed their e-KYC, submitted the correct documents, and linked their Aadhaar to their bank account are most likely to receive this Diwali gift.
