PM-KISAN 21st Instalment Credits ₹18,000 Crore to Over 9 Crore Farmers

Officials urge those still waiting to complete e-KYC and correct land-record or Aadhaar–bank link errors to trigger the transfer.

Overview

  • Prime Minister Narendra Modi released the instalment on November 19 from Coimbatore, sending the ₹2,000 tranche via direct benefit transfer.
  • Pending cases are largely due to incomplete e-KYC, unseeded or inaccurate land details, or mismatches between Aadhaar and bank accounts.
  • Beneficiaries can verify payment through the pmkisan.gov.in 'Know Your Status' tool, the PM-KISAN mobile app, or bank SMS alerts and account statements.
  • Help and grievance options include PM-KISAN helplines, Common Service Centres, local agriculture offices and the CPGRAMS portal.
  • State tallies report 34.12 lakh recipients in Odisha and 18.18 lakh in Assam, including 36,828 in Sonitpur; Odisha also provides a ₹4,000 CM-Kisan top-up and related scholarships.
