When a farmer works hard day and night in his field, protects his crop from the scorching sun, rain, etc., then he is able to harvest his crop and earn some money by selling it. To ensure that the farmer does not face any problem in farming, the state governments and the central government help them in many ways, one of which is through schemes.
Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana is one such important scheme, under which farmers get financial assistance of ₹ 6,000 annually. So far, farmers associated with this scheme have received a total of 19 installments and now it is the turn of the 20th installment. But, there are many farmers whose installment may get stuck. In such a situation, it is crucial to know who will get the benefit of the 20th installment and who will not. Let us know about this in detail.
Farmers will have to wait a bit
A total of 19 installments have been released so far under the PM Kisan Yojana and now the 20th installment is awaited. Let us tell you that every installment of this scheme comes at an interval of about four months. For example, the 18th installment was released in October 2024, and the 19th installment in February 2025. According to this, the four months for the release of the 20th installment will be completed in June 2025. Therefore, there is a strong possibility that the 20th installment can be released in June. However, official information is still awaited. Farmers are eagerly waiting for this auspicious moment.
Who will get the 20th installment and who will not
To get the benefit of the 20th installment, farmers will have to fulfill some important eligibility criteria. If there is any deficiency in these, then the installment can get stuck. Let’s know who will get the 20th installment and who will not:
Land Verification is mandatory
If you have got the land verification work done, then you can get the installment. But the installment of those farmers who have not got this work done can get stuck. In this, the verification of the land of the farmers is done by the department. This work is mandatory for every farmer associated with the scheme.
E-KYC is also necessary
The installment of those Indian farmers who have not got the e-KYC process done can also get stuck. At the same time, farmers who have completed this work can avail the benefit of installment. Farmers can get this work done from the official portal of the scheme pmkisan.gov.in, Kisan App, or their nearest CSC center. This ensures your identity and eligibility.
Aadhaar Linking is also important
To avail of the benefit of installment under the scheme, farmers will also have to get Aadhaar linking done. For this, you will have to go to your bank and link your Aadhaar card to your bank account. Farmers who get this work done will get the benefit of installment. At the same time, the installment of farmers who will not get this work done may get stuck. This makes Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) successful.
