The farmers, registered under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Nidhi Samman Yojana, are likely to get the next instalment of Rs 2,000 in their bank accounts next month. Several media reports state that the 9th instalment under the PM-Kisan scheme will be given to the registered farmers in August. The Central government provides Rs 6,000 every year to small and marginal farmers as an income support to their vulnerable livelihoods.
According to the official website, the scheme was implemented from Dec 1, 2018, and is 100% funded by the Central government. Under the PM-Kisan scheme, farmer families who have combined land holdings of upto two acres are eligible for the scheme. The Rs 6000 income support acts as a cushion during financial hardships in a farmer’s family. Government transfers the fund directly to registered farmers’ bank accounts in three equal instalments every year.
The government has so far transferred eight instalments with the last one being sent on May 14 this year.
