Budget 2025: Every section of the country has high expectations from the Union Budget to be presented on 1 February 2025. Farmers are waiting for the installment to increase under PM scheme. Farmers have been demanding to increase the money of PM farmers for a long time. Currently, farmers get Rs 6,000 annually under this scheme. Agriculture experts and farmers are demanding to increase it to Rs 10,000. If the government announces this in the budget, then it will be a big relief for the farmers.
Will Modi government give gift to farmers?
This budget will be the first full budget of the third term of the Modi government. Therefore, the eyes of the farmers are on the announcements of Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman. There has been talk of increasing the money of PM Kisan Yojana earlier, but this time it is more expected that the government can make a big announcement.
What is PM-Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana?
The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana was launched on 1 December 2018. The objective of this scheme is to provide financial assistance to small and marginal farmers. Under this, the government gives farmers Rs 6,000 every year in three installments. This money is transferred directly to their bank account. So far, the government has released 18 installments under this scheme, and the 19th installment is expected to come in February 2025.
Why need to increase money?
Farmers say that Rs 6,000 is not enough due to rising expenses of inflation and farming. Manure, seeds, pesticides and other agricultural equipment have become expensive, which has increased economic pressure on farmers. If the government makes this amount up to Rs 10,000, then farmers will help in investing more in farming.
Increased installment will benefit
If the budget is announced to increase the amount of PM Kisan Yojana in 2025, then millions of farmers will get direct benefit. With more financial assistance, farmers will be able to improve the clarity of their crops and their economic condition will be strengthened. Also, the rural economy will also be strengthened by this.
Expectations to farmers from budget 2025
Farmers have been demanding to increase the amount of this scheme for a long time. If the government accepts their demand, then it can bring a big change in their lives. This will not only provide relief to the farmers, but it will also strengthen the entire agricultural sector. Now everyone’s eyes are on the upcoming budget on 1 February 2025.
