Millions of farmers across the country are eagerly awaiting the 22nd installment of the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. Meanwhile, a major news has raised concerns for many beneficiaries. The government has removed the names of millions of farmers from the beneficiary list in various states. Now, it's crucial to know if your name is included in this deletion.

Why are farmers' names being deleted?
The government periodically updates the beneficiary list to ensure transparency in the scheme. According to information on the official portal, there are two major reasons for the deletion. The first is related to land ownership. Documents of farmers who registered their land after February 1, 2019, meaning they did not own agricultural land before, are now being thoroughly scrutinized.

Another major reason for deletions is that multiple members of the same family are benefiting from the scheme. There have been cases where both husband and wife, or an adult and a minor member, are simultaneously receiving funds from the scheme. According to the rules, this is completely wrong, and such cases are being identified, and strict action is being taken.

Will the pending installment be refunded?
The Agriculture Ministry's website clearly states that benefits have been suspended for beneficiaries in suspicious cases. This suspension will continue until their physical verification is complete. After verification, if farmers are found eligible and meet all the conditions of the scheme, the suspended funds will be transferred to their accounts.

Check Your Status Before the 22nd Installment:
To ensure your name is on the list, you can easily check your latest status. First, visit the official PM Kisan portal. Go to the 'Farmers Corner' section on the homepage and click on the 'Beneficiary Status' option. Then, enter your Aadhaar number, bank account number, or mobile number. Finally, enter the captcha code and click on 'Get Status'. The full information will appear on the screen.

When will the next installment be credited to your account?

Now the biggest question is when the 22nd installment of the scheme's two thousand rupees will be transferred to farmers' bank accounts. While no official announcement has been made by the government yet, media reports suggest this money could be released in the first week of March or just before the Holi festival.
