16 lakh more farmers of Uttar Pradesh will soon get the benefit of Prime Minister Kisan Samman Nidhi. These people were denied benefits due to data related disturbances. The government has corrected these flaws by conducting a special campaign from 1 to 3 February.
At present, under this fund, 2.43 crore farmers of the state are getting six thousand rupees per year. At the same time, the Department of Agriculture says that there are about 16 lakh farmers who have registered on the Kisan Portal, whose Aadhar or bank accounts had errors in their records.
Apart from this, the software is also claiming invalid number of all farmers. These flaws have been largely fixed. Those registering more than once for the benefit of the scheme are also being shortlisted.
Agriculture Minister Surya Pratap Shahi told that we will give benefit of the scheme to all the characters. If needed, a campaign will be launched soon to correct the errors.
