Coimbatore: The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi was initiated to help marginal farmers by providing them a subsidy of Rs.6000 annually, disbursed in three installments. Later, the scheme was opened to all types of farmers - mariginal, small, medium and big scale farmers, alike.

According to this scheme, the subsidy was arranged to be deposited into the farmer’s account or in the account of their family members. Presently, the collection of data on the Aadhaar card number, account details and patta is being carried out to implement the scheme. During the collection of data by officials, it was found that in certain villages, the farmer, the patta holder of the land was living elsewhere. This made it difficult for all beneficiaries in the region to be covered. Hence, the officials have asked the patta holder to report to the village office in their region with their Aadhaar card, account details and patta to be eligible for the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi.
