PM Kisan KYC: Millions of farmers across the country are awaiting the 22nd installment of the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. Although the government has not yet announced an official date for the installment, it is believed that an amount of Rs 2,000 may be transferred to farmers’ bank accounts this month. However, keep in mind that this time, only those farmers who have completed their e-KYC process will receive the money. Failure to do so could result in your installment being delayed.
The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana (PM Kisan) is a central government scheme administered by the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare. Under this scheme, farmers across the country receive a total annual assistance of Rs 6,000, distributed in three equal installments of Rs 2,000. This amount is deposited directly into farmers’ accounts, eliminating the possibility of fraud.
How can you complete e-KYC from home using your mobile in just 2 minutes?
You no longer have to go to a government office or a Public Service Center (CSC) to finish your e-KYC. If your mobile number is connected to your Aadhaar card, you can easily do it yourself by following these steps:
