The beneficiaries of the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM Kisan Samman Nidhi) are eagerly waiting for the 20th instalment. It will be transferred to the farmers’ bank accounts very soon. However, the government has clearly said that to receive this instalment, farmers must complete some important tasks on time.
What is PM Kisan Yojana?
PM Kisan Yojana is a scheme for farmers. Under this scheme, farmers get ₹6,000 every year.
This money is sent directly to their bank accounts in three parts through DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer).
The government said on social media:
“The future of farmers is safe. India’s farming is growing. To get the 20th instalment, finish some important work today.”
