Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana: Several cases have surfaced in Jharkhand where ineligible beneficiaries were taking benefits of the scheme.
PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana: Prime Minister Narendra Modi's flagship Pradhan Mantri Kisan (PM-Kisan) Samman Nidhi Yojana (Scheme) looks to provide financial assistance to the tune of Rs 6,000 annually to farmers.
Fake beneficiaries:
However, now the government has decided to take strict action against fake beneficiaries of the scheme. Several cases have surfaced in Jharkhand where ineligible beneficiaries were taking benefits of the scheme. Following this, the government has registered a case of fraud against them.
Earlier last year, the Agriculture Ministry had stated that out of nearly 12 lakh beneficiaries, 4 per cent were found to be ineligible, invalid or simply bogus. In fact, in some cases, the authentication process proved that beneficiaries who had not even applied for the scheme were added to it the ministry claimed.
What is PM-Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana?
This financial assistance from the government to farmers comes in three instalments of Rs 2000. Under the scheme, the first instalment of Rs 2000 comes from April 1 to July 31, the second instalment comes between August 1 and November 30 and the third instalment from December 1 to March 31.
This annual financial support is given to farmers having combined land holding/ownership of up to 2 hectares. Since its inception in December 2018, the government has given seven installments to these farmers. The Central government's Rs 75,000-crore scheme aims to cover 125 million farmers, irrespective of the size of their landholding in the country.
On May 14, the government started transferring Rs 2000 to farmers' accounts under the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana (PM-KSNY). PM Modi released the eighth installment of over Rs 20,000 crore to more than 9.5 crore farmers of the country via videoconferencing.
