PM Kisan Yojana is a significant scheme for lower class farmers, providing up to ₹ 6,000 annually directly to their accounts. Farmers must have an account under Jan Dhan Yojana or a related scheme to receive benefits, making corrections as needed. The government now requires eKYC for farmers to be eligible for the scheme.
Farmers must complete the e-KYC process, linking Aadhar card and mobile number with their bank accounts. Those without e-KYC should complete the process before the next delivery to continue receiving benefits. Assistance is only provided to farmers with completed eKYC and no issues in their bank accounts.
The e-KYC process may involve biometrics, where thumb impressions can be used if a mobile number is not registered. The completion of e-KYC activates the bank account, ensuring eligibility for the scheme. Farmers can complete eKYC from home on the official website, without visiting a bank or online center.

After entering their Aadhar number and mobile number, they will receive an OTP to be filled in a designated place. For biometric verification, farmers need to place a finger and click submit to receive a successful e-KYC notification.. Read More Here
