Only one application per family

In the last 15 installments, there have been several cases where different members of the same family applied for PM Kisan Yojana and the funds were deposited in their accounts, although this is against the rules.

How can two brothers take advantage?

If two brothers live in the same family, only one of them can apply for PM Kisan Yojana. This means that only one member of the family can avail the benefits of this scheme. At the same time, if one brother lives separately with his family and does farming separately, then both the brothers can apply for this scheme, and the installment will be deposited in the accounts of both.
