PM Kisan Samman Nidhi
Many government schemes are currently running in the country. If you are also eligible for any government scheme, then you can get benefits by joining that scheme. For example, the central government runs the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana for farmers. Only farmers are given benefits under this scheme.
If you are also an eligible farmer for this scheme, then you can apply, and you will get ₹ 6000 annually. This money is given to you in three installments of Rs 2,000 each, but if you do not do important work related to this scheme, then your installment can also get stuck. In such a situation, it becomes important to know what work you have to get done. So let’s know about this work in detail.
E-KYC is the first condition
If you are also associated with PM Kisan Yojana, then know that it is most important for you to get e-KYC done. If you do not get this work done, then your installment can get stuck. It has already been made clear by the department that farmers must get e-KYC done to avail of the benefit of the installment. Therefore, complete this process without delay.
Two easy ways to get e-KYC done
If you have not got e-KYC done yet, then get it done as soon as possible, otherwise you may be deprived of the installment to be released further. For this, you have two easy ways:
You can get e-KYC done by visiting your nearest CSC (Common Service Center). Biometric-based e-KYC is done here. This is a good option for those who have trouble with the online process.
If you do not want to go to the CSC center, then you can also do e-KYC yourself. For this, you have to visit the official website of the scheme pmkisan.gov.in or you can also go to the official Kisan App. From here you can do OTP based e-KYC. This method is convenient for those who are technology friendly.
Apart from e-KYC, these tasks are also important
Apart from e-KYC, there are some other tasks which are important. The first of these tasks is Land Verification! You will also have to get this work done. The government wants to ensure that the benefits of the scheme reach the right farmers, who actually have cultivable land.
Apart from land verification, you will also have to get Aadhaar Linking done. In this, you will have to link your Aadhaar card to your bank account! For this, you will have to go to your bank branch. This is necessary so that the government can send the installment amount directly to your bank account.
