Will PM Kisan 24th Installment Arrive On Raksha Bandhan?

The 24th installment of the PM-Kisan will not be released on Raksha Bandhan. The government has not yet issued an official announcement regarding the release date, meaning eligible farmers will not receive the Rs 2,000 on the festival. The previous 23rd installment was disbursed on June 20.

When Will PM Kisan 24th Installment Be Released?

PM-Kisan installment payments are disbursed every four months. Since only two months have passed since the last payment, it is unlikely that the government will release the next installment in early September. The government announces the payout date just a few days before sending it, and no such announcement has been made yet. Therefore, claims that the next installment will reach farmers' accounts shortly are incorrect.

The standard four-month gap will end around October 20. As a result, the government may send the next installment in October or November. However, no official announcement regarding the date has been made yet.
