The Government of India constantly introduces various schemes for the welfare of its citizens to suit different demographics.
One such scheme launched by the government in 2018 was aimed at benefiting farmers. Known as PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana, this scheme provides financial assistance of ₹6000 per year to farmers. This amount is distributed directly into the bank accounts of farmers in installments of ₹2000 every four months.
A common question arises among the people whether the entire family can avail the benefits of Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana.
It should be clarified that only one person per family is eligible to avail the benefits of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana.
If any other member of the family applies for benefits under this scheme, his application will be rejected.
So, if someone in your household is already benefiting from this scheme and you are also considering applying for it, it is advisable not to do so, as your application will become invalid.
