PM-Kisan Scheme: A Complete Guide to Eligibility, Payments, and Status

The PM-Kisan scheme is a crucial plan by the Indian government. It provides financial help to farmers all over the country.

Understanding the PM-Kisan Scheme

The PM-Kisan scheme is a plan by the Central Government. It gives money to all farmer families who own land in India. The scheme provides Rs 6,000 every year. This amount is split into three equal parts of Rs 2,000 each. The money goes straight to the farmers’ bank accounts.

But, some people cannot get this help. This includes people who pay income tax and government workers.

Next Payment Date

People think the 20th payment of PM-Kisan will be given on June 20, 2025. But, this date is not sure yet. The 19th payment was given in February 2025.
