## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE AND FARMERS WELFARE

कृ ष एवं कसान कयाण मंी (SHRI NARENDRA SINGH TOMAR)

(a) to (f): Financial  benefits  of  Rs.6000/-  per  year  under  the  Pradhan  Mantri  Kisan Samman Nidhi  (PM-KISAN)  is  transferred  in  three  4-monthly  installments  of  Rs.2000/-  each directly into the bank accounts of the farmers.

Registration of farmers for this scheme and subsequent installment-wise transfer of  benefits  to  them  is  a  continuous  and  ongoing  process.  The  transfer  of  benefits  to  the identified  eligible  beneficiaries  takes  place  as  and  when  their  correct  and  verified  data  are uploaded by the concerned State / UT Governments on PM-Kisan web-portal www.pmkisan.gov.in.  The  speed  with  which  error-free  beneficiaries'  data  is  uploaded  differs from State to State. The West Bengal Government has not yet decided to join the scheme at all.

The data of beneficiaries so uploaded by the State / UT Governments undergoes a  multi-level  verification  and  validation  by  various  concerned  agencies,  including  the  banks, which includes rejection of data for errors at various levels and re-uploading of error-free data by the State / UT Governments. Thereafter only the amount is successfully transferred into the bank  accounts  of  the  beneficiaries.  This  entire  process  is  replicated  for  transfer  of  every installment.

Hence,  at  any  point  of  time,  there  remains  substantial  unprocessed  data  of beneficiaries which are taken care of in due course of time. However, all eligible beneficiaries are entitled to be paid their benefits from the 4-monthly period in  which their registration has taken place, and hence they will not lose the benefit of any installment for procedural delays, except on account of their ineligibility.

Accordingly, as per the format of the scheme, release of benefits to farmers are in various stages of progress for different 4-monthly periods, namely, 1 st December, 2018 to 31 st March, 2019, 1 st April,  2019  to  31 st July,  2019  and  1 st August, 2019 to 30 th November, 2019. Hence, some farmers have got all 3 installments, some only two and some only one, depending upon the 4-monthly period in which they have been first registered by the concerned State/UTGovernments. The details of beneficiaries who have been transferred the benefits so far, Statewise and instalment-wise are given at Annexures - I, II & III.

To further facilitate registration of farmers, an exclusive 'Farmers Corner' has been provided in the PM-KISAN Web-portal through which the farmers can do their self-registration. Farmers can also edit their names in PM-Kisan database as per their Aadhaar Card through the Farmers  Corner.    Farmers  can  also  know  the  status  of  their  payment  through  the  Farmers Corner.  The village-wise names of the beneficiaries are also available in the Farmers Corner. Common Service Centres (CSCs) have also been authorized to assist the farmers in performing the above tasks.

On  the  instructions  of  the  Union  Government,  the  States  have  organized Publicity/Awareness  Camps  to  ensure  expeditious  Aadhaar  authentication  of  the  data  of  the beneficiaries along with new registrations and correction of already registered data.
