Budget 2025: The annual money received under the Prime Minister’s Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-Kisan) scheme can increase from Rs 6,000 to Rs 8,000. The farmers of the country have been demanding for a long time that the money received under the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana should be increased. Farmers across the country are expecting this increase in the Union Budget to be presented on 1 February 2025. The budget to be presented on 1 February in 2025 is the first full budget of the third term of the Modi government. This is the reason that this time farmers have high expectations from Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman. To provide relief to small and marginal farmers, the government gives Rs 6,000 in three equal installments annually under this scheme.
What can change?
Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman had said earlier this year that the government is in front of the government to spread the PM-Kisan Yojana to more farmers. However, he did not give any assurance to increase money then. But this time it is expected that the government will announce for the farmers. Currently, the government is considering to increase the amount of Rs 6,000 annually Rs 8,000.
Farmers waiting for great relief
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has released 18 installments under PM Kisan. Farmers are waiting for the 19th installment. It is expected that the 19th installment may come in February 2025. These installments are directly transferred to the bank accounts of the beneficiary farmers. The main objective of this scheme is to provide financial assistance to farmers and strengthen the rural economy. Experts believe that it is necessary to increase the installment of Rs 6,000 in view of inflation and increasing expenditure in farming. This will give more financial security to the farmers and will be able to handle their farming better.
Will the government increase installment money in budget 2025
Now everyone’s eyes are fixed at the Union Budget 2025. If it is announced to increase the amount, then it will be a big relief for millions of farmers. The farmer community is hoping that the government will take this big step, understanding their needs.
