Study by Libtech India blames official apathy for improper bank account linkage

HYDERABAD (Telangana): A total of 4.7 lakh farmers in Telangana have not received either part or full benefits under the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi scheme, a study by Libtech India, a research group, found.

Under the scheme modelled after Rythu Bandhu scheme of the Telangana government, the Central government is transferring 6,000 annual benefit each to eligible farmers in three instalments. The disbursement this year began by way of 10th instalment since January 1. While the transfer is scheduled to be tentatively closed by the end of February, the data mining conducted by Libtech India has revealed that a large number of eligible farmers have not been receiving either full or partial instalments since the beginning of the scheme in February 2019.

From the State, a total of 39,34,691 farmers are registered under the scheme, with an estimated entitlement of 6,558 crore. Of the total benefit, an estimated 6,165 crore has been paid and received by the farmers.

Technical reasons

However, the data crawling operations conducted by the study group could not find details of over 95,000 farmers online for technical reasons. Hence, the data pertaining to remaining 38,39,545 farmers has been proportionately applied to the 95,000 missing farmers too, to arrive at the estimated numbers, members of the study group informed.
