PM Kisan Samman Nidhi: Over 1 Million Farmers Removed from Beneficiary List Ahead of 24th Installment

Important Update for PM Kisan Beneficiaries

The government is preparing to release the 24th installment of the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM Kisan) scheme on October 30. However, reports indicate that the beneficiary list has been updated, resulting in the removal of over 1 million names. Farmers are advised to verify their eligibility and status on the official portal to ensure they receive the upcoming payment.

Steps to Verify Your Beneficiary Status

To confirm if your name is still active and to check the status of your payment, follow these steps:

• Visit the official PM Kisan portal at pmkisan.gov.in or use the official mobile application.
• Navigate to the "Know Your Status" section.
• If your eKYC status is marked in red, it indicates that the verification process is incomplete or has failed.

Resolving Discrepancies

If you find that your status requires attention, you may take the following actions:

• Complete eKYC: Visit a local Common Service Centre (CSC) or complete the process via the official PM Kisan mobile app.
• Contact Authorities: If the issue persists after updating your eKYC, reach out to your local agricultural department office for further guidance on rectifying the data mismatch.

It is essential for all farmers to use only the official government portal for status checks to avoid misinformation.
