Govt launches PM-KISAN Mobile App on 1st anniversary of Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN)

The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-Kisan) was launched on February 24, 2019 to provide annually Rs 6,000 to each eligible farmer. The first anniversary of the scheme was observed on Feb 24, 2020.
On this occasion, a mobile app named PM-KISAN Mobile App was launched by Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar to broaden the reach of this programme.
Using the app, farmers can view the status of their application, update or carry out corrections of their Aadhaar cards and also check history of credits to their bank accounts.
All the states except West Bengal have implemented this scheme. The total number of beneficiaries to be covered under the scheme is about 14 crore.
