PM-KISAN 20th Payment: Will Two Thousand Rupees Be Deposited Today? Examine Details & Verify Your Status
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to visit Motihari, Bihar on July 18, 2025, an event marked by the inauguration and laying of foundation stones for several development projects worth over Rs 7,100 crore. However, there is speculation that the visit may also see the release of the 20th installment of the PM-KISAN scheme, a financial aid programme for eligible landholding farmers.
The PM-KISAN scheme, which was first implemented in Bhagalpur, Bihar in 2019, provides farmers with an annual payment of Rs 6,000, distributed in three equal installments. The 19th installment was released during the Prime Minister's visit to Bhagalpur, Bihar in February 2025. The 20th installment, initially expected by the end of June 2025, has been delayed, causing concern among farmers.
While there is speculation that the 20th installment may be disbursed during Prime Minister Modi's visit to Bihar, there is **no verified official announcement or confirmation** that it was actually released at that time. Delays in the administrative processing have been reported, and as of mid-July, the government had not announced a final date for the payment distribution.
Farmers are advised to verify their name in the PM-KISAN beneficiary list to ensure they receive the payment. To do so, visit the official PM-KISAN website (pmkisan.gov.in), click on "Farmer Corner" and then "Beneficiary List". Select your state, district, sub-district, block, and village, and click on "Beneficiary Status" under the "Farmer Corner".
It is essential for farmers to complete e-KYC, Aadhaar linking, and check their beneficiary status to avoid missing out on the payment. If a farmer's name is not listed, they will not receive the 20th PM-KISAN installment.
Bihar is heading into assembly elections soon, and the 20th installment may be disbursed during Prime Minister Modi's visit to Bihar, given the scheme's historical connection to the state. The 20th installment of the PM-KISAN Samman Nidhi Yojana is awaited by farmers across India.
