PM Kisan Nidhi Yojana: The government administers various schemes to assist diverse classes and individuals in both rural and urban areas. One such initiative is the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana, designed to offer financial aid to farmers. Under this program, financially disadvantaged farmers receive an annual disbursement of Rs 6,000. Each beneficiary receives 17 installments of Rs 2,000 each, with the 18th installment set for imminent release. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is slated to personally oversee the release of the 18th installment. Further details on the number of farmers set to benefit from this installment will be forthcoming.

PM Modi will release the installment: 

-On October 5, 2024, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to release the 18th installment of the PM Kisan Yojana. This release is highly anticipated by the beneficiaries who have been waiting for this milestone, as it marks the conclusion of the program. 

-According to the information received, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will transfer the 18th installment on October 5, 2024 from Washim, Maharashtra. He will send Rs 2,000 each as the 18th installment to the bank accounts of the beneficiaries through DBT. On this occasion, Prime Minister Modi will also interact with the farmers associated with the scheme.

How many farmers will benefit from the installment?

- Every time, crores of farmers receive the installment benefit. This time, the government has provided information about it. According to the information received, the 18th installment will benefit 9.5 crore farmers. The government will spend 20 thousand crores rupees for this purpose.

To check if you have received the installment, follow these steps:

- The installment will be released on October 5th. In this case, the bank and the government will send a message notifying you about the installment being deposited into your bank account. 

- If you have not received this message, you can visit an ATM or request an entry in your bank branch passbook to verify if the installment has been credited to your account.

Are these works complete?

- If you are part of the PM Kisan Yojana, you need to complete your e-KYC to receive the installment benefit. Farmers who have not completed this process may miss out on the installment benefit. The department has already stated that completing the e-KYC is necessary to receive the benefit. 

- In addition to e-KYC, land verification is also required for farmers. Furthermore, farmers need to link their bank account with their Aadhaar account. Failure to complete these tasks will result in farmers being ineligible for the 18th installment benefit.
