New Delhi, Business Desk. PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana was launched as part of efforts by the government to double the income of farmers. However, this scheme is no less than a lifeline for the underprivileged, poor and economically weak farmers of the country at this time of lockdown. Under this scheme, farmers get an amount of Rs 6,000 every year. The government sends this amount to the farmers in three equal installments. The first installment of FY 2020-21 has been put by the government in the accounts of the beneficiary farmers. However, if you are registered under PM Kisan Yojana and the amount has not yet been received in your account, one of the reasons behind this may be the difference between your name registered in the PM Kisan Register and the name entered in the Aadhaar card.
