The number of beneficiaries under the PM-Kisan scheme in Tamil Nadu has significantly decreased, dropping by 52% from its peak in 2020.
The PM-Kisan scheme, a central government initiative aimed at providing financial assistance to farmers, has seen a sharp decline in beneficiaries in Tamil Nadu. Official data reveals a 52% reduction in the number of beneficiaries compared to the peak recorded in 2020. This significant drop raises questions about the scheme's effectiveness and the factors contributing to the decline in participation. The reasons behind this decrease are yet to be officially clarified by the Tamil Nadu government or the central authorities.
