## ANSWER

THE MINISTER OF STATE FOR AGRICULTURE AND FARMERS WELFARE क ृ िष एवं िकसान कʞाण राǛ मंũी (SHRI RAMNATH THAKUR)

(a) to (c): The  PM-KISAN  scheme  is  a  central  sector  scheme  launched  in February 2019 by the Hon'ble Prime Minister to supplement the financial needs of land-holding farmers. Under the scheme, a financial benefit of Rs 6,000/- per year is transferred  in  three  equal  instalments,  into  the  Aadhaar  seeded  bank  accounts  of farmers through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) mode.

A farmer-centric digital infrastructure has ensured the benefits of the scheme reach all the farmers across the country without involvement of any intermediaries. Maintaining  absolute  transparency  in  registering  and  verifying  beneficiaries,  the Government of India has disbursed over Rs 3.46 lakh Cr. through 18 installments since inception including the State of West Bengal.

The  instalment-wise,  State-wise  details  of  beneficiaries  benefited  under  the PM-KIsan Scheme and the amount released to them is at Annexure - I. The Districtwise details of beneficiaries of West-Bengal including in Darjeeling, Kalimpong, and North Dinajpur districts is at Annexure - II.

(d) & (e): At present, there is no such proposal under consideration.

(f): An  independent  study  was  conducted  by  the  International  Food  Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) in 2019. According to the study, funds disbursed under the PM-KISAN have acted as a catalyst in rural economic growth, aided in alleviating the credit constraints of farmers, and increased investments in agricultural inputs. Further, the scheme has enhanced farmers' risk-taking capacity, leading them to undertake riskier  but  comparatively  productive  investments.  The  funds  received  by  recipients under PM-KISAN are not only helping them with their agricultural needs, but it is also catering to their other expenses such as education, medical, marriage, etc. These are the indicators of the positive impact of the scheme on the farmers of the country. PM KISAN has truly been a game changer for the farming community of our country.

(g): The Government of India and State Governments undertake several activities for the publicity of PM-KISAN, including print advertisements in newspapers at regular intervals, outreach through social media, programs on DD Kisan, etc. Furthermore, the  Ministry  also  provides  administrative  expenses  to  the  States/UTs  for  the implementation of PM-KISAN, including publicity/awareness drives.

(h): PM-KISAN Scheme has a robust grievance redressal mechanism. There is a dedicated grievance module on the PM-KISAN Portal for raising grievances by the farmers. Apart from the PM-KISAN grievance module, farmers can also register their grievances  through  Centralized  Public  Grievance  Redress  and  Monitoring  System ( CPGRAMS)  Portal.  These  grievances  are  addressed  by  the  State/District  level officials in a time bound manner.

Further,  considering  the  large  beneficiary  base  of  the  scheme,  to  promptly address the general queries and grievances raised by the beneficiaries, a voice-based PM-KISAN AI Chatbot (Kisan e-Mitra) was developed. This Chatbot provides quick, accurate,  and  clear  responses  to  farmers'  queries  round  the  clock  in  their  native languages, making the system more accessible and user-friendly. It is accessible on all platforms such as web, mobile, etc. The Kisan eMitra Chatbot currently operates in 11  languages-English,  Hindi,  Odia,  Tamil,  Bengali,  Malayalam,  Gujarati,  Punjabi, Kannada, Telugu, and Marathi. So far, over 91 lakh queries  of  more  than  52 lakh farmers have been addressed.
