According to State Agriculture Minister Surya Pratap Shahi, 21 lakh farmers selected in Uttar Pradesh were found ineligible, according to an investigation into the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. “There are many cases in which both husband and wife are getting the benefit of this scheme. Those found ineligible include many people who used to file income tax,” Shahi said.
The minister said that the money that was given earlier to those ineligible farmers under the program will be recovered.
Small and marginal farmer families holding eligible land under the scheme will receive a direct payment of Rs. 6000 per annum, distributed in three equal installments of Rs. 2000 each, every four months, in their Aadhaar-seed bank accounts.
