What is PM-KISAN Yojna
Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi is a Government of India run initiative. By this initiative each farmer gets Rs 6000 per year as minimum income support.
The scheme was first conceived and implemented by Government of Telangana as Rythy Bandhu Scheme.
Piyush Goyal, then Acting Minister of Finance on February 1, 2019 during Interim Union Budget of India announced the initiative.
The scheme costs Rs 75,000 crore per annum. It came into effect from December 2018 and has been in operation.
In the scheme, each farmer gets Rs 6000 per annum in three installments. The funds come directly in registered bank account of farmers. This ensures that they receive their money on time without corruption.
