PM Kisan Samman Nidhi: EKYC deadline extended; know new date, process
The administration has extended the deadline for the second time in two weeks.
FollowThe central government has again extended the deadline for completing the obligatory e-KYC by two months, to July 31, 2022, as a relief to PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana beneficiaries. Previously, the deadline was set for May 31, 2022.
Following the notice on the PM Kisan portal, "The eKYC deadline for all PMKISAN beneficiaries has been extended to July 31, 2022." For the second time in two weeks, the administration has extended the deadline. On May 21, the Centre announced that the deadline for completing the obligatory eKYC had been extended until May 31, 2022.
This comes just days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi distributed over Rs 21,000 to over ten crore farmers in the 11th tranche of cash benefits under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM Kisan) on May 31.
Every landholding farmer family will receive a financial benefit of Rs 6000 per year under the PM-Kisan scheme, which will be paid in three equal payments of Rs 2000 every four months.
