To provide financial help to the farmers in the country, the Government of India runs a scheme, whose name is Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. Through this scheme, economically weak farmers, the needy, and farmers coming from the poor class are helped. Farmers who are eligible for the scheme are given financial assistance of Rs 6,000 per year. At the same time, this money is given in 3 installments of Rs 2 thousand each. This time the 16th installment is to be released in this series, but before that it is necessary for the farmers to get one work done. Otherwise, you may be deprived of the benefit of installment. You can learn about this in the next slides...
When can the installment come?
The 15th installment was released on November 15, 2023, in which more than 8 crore farmers got benefits. In such a situation, this time the 16th installment is to be released, about which no official information has been revealed yet. At the same time, if media reports are to be believed, the 16th installment may be released in February-March.
