PM-KISAN 13th Installment: In an event held in Belagavi, Karnataka, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday disbursed the 13th installment of the Prime Minister Kisan Samman Nidhi Scheme (PM-KISAN) worth Rs 16,800 crore for nearly eight crore eligible farmers.
With this, it is expected that the total cash given to beneficiaries will exceed Rs. 2.32 lakh crore.
Four months after the October 2022 release of the 12th installment under the PM-KISAN, the 13th installment announcement is made. On May 2022, the eleventh installment was made available. Eligible farmers receive Rs 2,000 every four months, or Rs 6,000 annually, under the PM-KISAN scheme.
Each year, the funds are distributed in three installments, from April to July, August to November, and December to March. The beneficiaries’ bank accounts receive a direct transfer of the funds.
Although the scheme was implemented in February 2019, it began to be executed in December 2018.
Both Agriculture Secretary Manoj Ahuja and Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar attended the occasion.
