PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana June 2025 Kist Date

According to news reports, the 20th instalment (list) of the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana is likely to be deposited into farmers' accounts on Friday, June 20; however, the government has not officially confirmed the date. A farmer must meet specific eligibility criteria to receive the instalment under the PM-Kisan scheme. The criteria include the applicant being an Indian citizen and owning cultivable land with valid land records. Additionally, the applicant farmer must link their Aadhaar number to their bank account and complete eKYC verification to ensure the timely disbursal of the benefit.

That said, farmers who are income tax payers, pensioners, or employed in government/public sector jobs are not eligible for the PM Kisan scheme. Completing eKYC to receive the 20th instalment (list) of the PM Kisan scheme is compulsory. Farmers who have not done eKYC can do so by visiting the official PM Kisan website at pmkisan.gov.in and selecting the "e-KYC" option. They can enter using their Aadhaar number, validate the same through an OTP, and submit the verification. Farmers must ensure that their Aadhaar is linked with a bank account, as it helps avoid payment delays and rejections. Pyari Behna Nidhi Yojana: CM Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu Presides Over ‘Himachal Day Event’, Releases ‘Indira Gandhi Pyari Behna Yojana’ Instalment of INR 4,500.
