Be careful while filling the bank details

link bank account with aadhaar
If your bank account is not linked to Aadhaar, you should get this work done before registering for the scheme. Because if your bank account is not linked to Aadhaar card, you will face difficulty in getting the benefits of the scheme.
E KYC is mandatory

Only one person from a family will get the benefit
Under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana, only one member of the farmer’s family can get the benefit. That is, if the benefit is being taken in the name of the father in a family, then the son will not be able to take advantage of the scheme.
