The Government of India is running many great schemes to make the poor farmers in the country economically strong. PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana is also one of them. Under this scheme, the government is providing financial assistance of Rs 6 thousand annually to crores of economically weak farmers in the country. This financial assistance of Rs 6 thousand is released every year in the form of three installments. Under each installment, the government sends an amount of two thousand rupees to the farmers' account through DBT. So far, money from 16 installments has been sent to the farmers' account. Recently, in a special program organized in Maharashtra, Prime Minister Narendra Modi released the 16th installment of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. At the same time, now soon the Government of India can release the money of the 17th installment.
Many farmers in the country have a question that can both the father as well as the son in a family take advantage of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana? Can both the people in a family apply for the scheme and get the benefit of the 17th installment?
You should know that only one member of a family gets the benefit of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. The benefit of the scheme is available to the same member of the family in whose name the land is registered.
For this reason, both the father and son in a family cannot take advantage of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana together. On the other hand, many farmers want to know when the government can release the 17th installment of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana.
If media reports are to be believed, the Government of India can release the 17th installment of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana after the results of the Lok Sabha elections. However, the government has not yet made any official announcement regarding this.
