PM-KISAN SAMMAN NIDHI

PM-KISAN Samman Nidhi is a flagship scheme launched by the Government of India to provide direct financial assistance to small and marginal farmers across the country, including those in Uttarakhand. Under this scheme, eligible farmers receive ₹6,000 annually in three equal installments of ₹2,000 each, aimed at supplementing their income for agricultural activities. The scheme targets farmers with cultivable land and ensures that the benefits are directly transferred to their bank accounts, ensuring transparency and timely disbursement. In Uttarakhand, this scheme has been instrumental in supporting farmers, especially in the hilly and remote areas, where agricultural practices are often challenging. To avail the benefits, farmers need to register on the official portal by providing documents such as Aadhaar, bank details, and land records.
