New Delhi: The 23rd installment of the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN) Yojana was released on Saturday. Prime Minister Narendra Modi transferred the installment amount to the bank accounts of crores of farmers across the country from West Bengal’s Tarakeswar. This time, assistance worth more than Rs 18,880 crore was disbursed to over 9.44 crore farmers.
If the eligible beneficiaries do not receive the installment amount in their accounts immediately, then there is no need to panic if this happens. If you are an eligible beneficiary under the scheme and the Rs 2,000 installment has not yet been credited to your account, there are a few important things you should check.
Things you should know:
- In many cases, the payment may get delayed due to incorrect bank account details or because the account has become inactive.
- Farmers should ensure that their bank account is active and that all the information linked to it is accurate and up to date.
- e-KYC is mandatory to receive benefits under the PM-Kisan Yojana.
- If a farmer has not completed their e-KYC, the installment may be withheld.
- Farmers can check their e-KYC status on the PM-Kisan portal.
- Any mismatch between Aadhaar details and bank account information can also delay payments.
- If there are differences in name, date of birth, or other details, they should be corrected immediately.
Check Your Name in the Beneficiary List
It is important for the farmers to verify whether their name is included in the scheme’s beneficiary list. In some cases, errors in documents may lead to removal from the list. The farmers can check the payment status on the PM-Kisan portal using the “Know Your Status” option. It provides information on whether the installment has been credited or is pending due to any reason.
