Key Features of Pradhanmantri Kisan Mandhan Yojana 2023
Often referred to as the Farmer’s Pension Scheme, the Kisan Mandhan Yojana 2023 opens doors to beneficiaries between the ages of 18 to 40. The national government has a strategic goal to encompass 5 crore petite and fringe farmers into the folds of this initiative by the year 2022. Those farmers who have cultivable land up to 2 hectares qualify to avail the advantages of this program. In case of the unfortunate event of a beneficiary’s demise, their life partner is entitled to a monthly pension of INR 1500, thereby providing sustained assistance to the family.
Premium Payment: A Fair Investment for Long Term Security
To enjoy the perks of the Farmer’s Pension Scheme, beneficiaries are obligated to deposit monthly premium payments. Beneficiaries at the age of 18 will need to contribute INR 55 each month, while those at 40 years old will be required to pay INR 200 monthly. These consistent contributions are designed to secure their eligibility to avail the benefits of the scheme upon reaching the age of 60.

The PM Kisan Mandhan Yojana 2023 mandates that beneficiaries have a bank account linked to their Aadhaar card. The monthly pension amount will be directly credited to the beneficiary’s account, reducing administrative hassles and ensuring transparency. This secure and seamless transaction ensures the safety of beneficiaries’ funds.
In conclusion, the Prime Minister Kisan Mandhan Scheme 2023 is a stride towards financial security for India’s small and marginal farmers. It’s a beacon of hope for those who feed the nation, securing their twilight years with dignity and independence.
