Can Husband and Wife get Rs 6000 from PM Kisan Yojana? Find out who is eligible, who is ineligible

The Central Government provides Rs. 6000 per annum as financial assistance to the farmers of the country under the Prime Minister's Kisan Sanman Nidhi Yojana. Rs.2000 is sent to the farmer's account every four months. However, people are getting more questions about this scheme.

Doubts have been raised on the website https://pmkisan.gov.in/. One of the questions is, can a husband and wife get different Rs 6,000 or Rs 12,000?

Many have farmland in the name of the husband and in the name of the wife. Sometimes the wife gets it from her father's home. There are some rules of PM Kisan Sanman Yojana. According to this, if a person from a family is the beneficiary of PM Kisan Yojana, then the scheme will apply to him only.

If another person from the same family applies, it will be considered forged. Also, only one application will be accepted. In addition, if a farmer pays income tax, he too will not be eligible for the scheme. Even couples who pay income tax will not be able to avail themselves of the benefits of this scheme.

Farmers who do not use their land for farming or do not farm at all are also ineligible for the scheme. People who do not own their own farms or who work in other people's farms as laborers or on hire are also disqualified.

Also, if a person is a farmer, he also farms but if he is a government employee or retired or a former MP, MLA, Minister, he is also not eligible for PM Kisan Yojana.

The central government has so far turned over 9 installments to farmers' accounts. However, the 10th installment has not come yet, it is said that it will be given to the farmers soon. However, if you have not yet applied for PM Kisan Yojana, you can.
