PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Scheme: Kisan Credit Card Scheme has also been linked to PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Scheme. Now only three documents are getting loans for agriculture at very cheap rates.
After linking the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana and KCC Scheme, 1.5 crore farmers of the country have been given Kisan Credit Cards. Their spending limit is Rs 1.35 lakh crore. From 24 February 2020 a special campaign was being launched to give KCC to the beneficiaries of Kisan Samman Nidhi. The Modi government had announced the issuance of 2.5 crore Kisan Credit Cards with a spending limit of Rs 2 lakh crore. So right now 1 crore more beneficiaries of PM farmer will get KCC.
The government wants to fill the gap between the PM farmer and the beneficiaries of KCC. Therefore, it has been made easier to take KCC for the benefit of the PM farmer. Since the registered farmers in this scheme have been biometric. The records of their agriculture, bank and Aadhaar are verified, so the bank cannot condone giving them KCC.
How to apply for Kisan credit card in Hindi
What is the government’s decision
Under the PM Kisan Scheme, the database of Aadhar card, revenue record and bank account number of 11.45 crore farmers of the country has come to the central government. The Union Ministry of Agriculture has already approved this record of the farmers who are getting benefit of the Rs 6000 scheme.
In such a situation, the bank cannot harass the farmer for this. The farmer can tell the bank that he is getting the benefit of the PM Kisan scheme and every record of it has been verified by the central and state government.
After linking the KCC scheme to the PM Kisan scheme, the trouble of KYC (KYC) has also ended. Now only one page form has to be filled for the farmers to get a Kisan Credit Card. Which can be downloaded from the right side of the former tab by visiting pmkisan.gov.in.
