Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana (PM-KISAN) is a major initiative by the Government of India. Its aim is to offer financial support to small and marginal farmers in India. As part of the program, qualifying farmers receive Rs 6,000 per year in three equal payments of Rs 2,000 each. These rupees are deposited directly into the farmers’ bank accounts.
The 18th tranche of Kisan Samman Nidhi was disbursed on 5 October 2024. Currently, the farmers are anticipating the 19th installment of Kisan Samman Nidhi. As per the details, the funds for the 19th installment may be credited to the farmers’ accounts during the first week of February 2025. Nonetheless, the government has yet to officially verify the date. The payments of Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana are disbursed every four months.
