Today, during the special festival of Nuakhai, Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi launched an innovative new scheme for farmers called the ‘CM Kisan Yojana.’
Who is eligible for the CM Kisan Yojana in Odisha?
This scheme is designed to provide financial assistance to
farmers who are not covered under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi
(PM-KISAN) scheme.
How much financial assistance will farmers receive through the CM Kisan Yojana?
Eligible farmers will receive a total of Rs 4,000 in two
phases. The first installment of Rs 2,000 will be distributed on Nuakhai, and
the remaining Rs 2,000 will be provided on Akshaya Tritiya.
What are the key benefits of the CM Kisan Yojana for landless farmers in Odisha?
In addition, the scheme will also support landless farmers
who were excluded from the PM-Kisan Yojana. The government aims to assist this
group of the farming community through the CM Kisan Yojana.
This initiative is part of the state government's efforts to
uplift farmers and boost agricultural development in Odisha.
