PM-KISAN 20th Installment: How Farmers Can Complete Aadhaar-Based OTP e-KYC To Receive Rs 2,000 In Their Bank Account – Check Eligibility, Docs Required

The scheme is launched by the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, the PM Kisan scheme provides Rs 6,000 annually to eligible farmers. This amount is disbursed in three equal installments of Rs 2,000 every four months, offering crucial financial support to small and marginal farmers.  

To receive the payment on time, beneficiaries must ensure their e-KYC is completed. Farmers who fail to update their Aadhaar-based e-KYC may face delays or rejections in fund transfers.  

To avoid any problems with the next installment, farmers need to complete their eKYC verification. This can be done online or at Common Service Centers (CSCs). They should also update their details, such as linking their Aadhaar numbers with their bank accounts, to receive the payment directly.    

To apply for the PM-KISAN Samman Nidhi Yojana, eligible farmers are required to submit several key documents. These include an Aadhaar Card, proof of citizenship, documents substantiating ownership of agricultural land, and details of their bank account.

These documents help verify eligibility and ensure that the financial assistance is directly transferred to the rightful beneficiaries without any delays.  

For any assistance related to the PM-KISAN scheme, beneficiaries can contact the helpline numbers 155261 or 011-24300606. They can also reach out via email at pmkisan-ict@gov.in for support. Adding further, farmers seeking in-person help can visit their nearest Common Service Centre (CSC), State Seva Kendra, or consult their local agriculture extension officer for guidance near by your area. 

 

Farmers whose mobile numbers are not linked with Aadhaar can visit their nearest Common Service Centres (CSCs) to complete the biometric-based e-KYC process. The PM-KISAN scheme offers multiple methods for completing e-KYC, including OTP-based e-KYC, face authentication-based e-KYC, and biometric-based e-KYC, ensuring flexibility and accessibility for all eligible beneficiaries.

The government strongly urges all eligible farmers to complete their e-KYC at the earliest to ensure timely receipt of PM-KISAN benefits without any delays.
