Prime Minister Narendra Modi was in Bhagalpur, Bihar, earlier this week to release the 19th instalment of the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN) scheme.

 

What is PM-KISAN

  The scheme was launched in February 2019 to supplement the financial needs of land-holding farmers. An amount of Rs 6,000 per year is transferred in three equal instalments to Aadhaar-seeded bank accounts of farmers through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) mode.

 

Farmers who have not completed e-KYC or have not linked their Aadhaar with their bank accounts may encounter challenges in receiving the 19th installment of the PM-KISAN Samman Nidhi. Meeting these requirements is essential to ensure a seamless disbursement process, which is vital for farmers.

 

Farmers must complete paperwork, including the e-know your customer (KYC) process to get 19th instalment.

 

To complete the eKYC process for PM-KISAN, follow these steps:
