NEW DELHI — Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced the disbursement of the 9th instalment of the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana for farmers on August 9.
Approximately Rs 19,500 crore was immediately paid into the bank accounts of over 9.75 lakh farmer families.
If you are a farmer and your name was not included in the list, you can contact your district’s District Level Grievance Redressal Monitoring Committee to get your name added to the list and receive the 9th instalment.

What really is Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi?
The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Sammann Nidhi (Prime Minister’s Farmer’s Tribute Fund), also called PMKSN, is an initiative by the Indian government under which all farmers would get basic income support of up to 6,000 rupees per year.
Piyush Goyal announced the scheme during the 2019 Interim Union Budget on February 1, 2019. The scheme, which costs Rs 75,000 crores per year, came into force in December 2018.
Each qualified farmer will get Rs 6,000 per year in three instalments, deposited straight into their bank accounts. It was the first time the Center announced such a scheme, which has so far benefited millions of farmers.
