For this, financial assistance of Rs 6 thousand is given to eligible farmers every year. This money is given in three installments of Rs 2 thousand each every four months. So far a total of 16 installments have been released and now the next turn is the 17th installment which can be released soon, but before that, the farmers associated with the scheme must complete some work. If you do not do this work, then your installment may get stuck. So let's know what these tasks are. You can know about this in the next slides...

These tasks are necessary for the farmers associated with the scheme: -
First work
If you want your installment not to get stuck, then you should get the work of e-KYC done. As per the rules, the farmer who has not got e-KYC will be deprived of the installment. Therefore, if you want to avail the benefit of the installment, then it is most important to get e-KYC done.

How can you get e-KYC done?

If you have not got e-KYC done, then you can get this work done by visiting the official portal of PM Kisan Yojana pmkisan.gov.in. Apart from this, you can also get e-KYC done from your nearest CSC center. Apart from this, if you want, you can also get e-KYC done by going to the bank. Biometric KYC is done here. For this, you have to meet the bank officer.

Second work
If you are associated with PM Kisan Yojana and you do not get the work of land verification done, then you may be deprived of the benefit of the installment. It was already made clear by the government that it is mandatory to get land verification done to get the benefit of the installment.

On which date can the 17th installment be released?

There is no official information yet about the date on which the 17th installment will be released, but as soon as the government was formed for the third time, Prime Minister Narendra Modi cleared the way for releasing the installment by signing the file of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi. If media reports are to be believed, the 17th installment can be released by the last week of June.
