New Delhi: PM Narendra Modi had released the 12th instalment of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi for beneficiary farmers on October 17. However, some eligible farmers haven’t received their instalments as of now. One of the reasons of not getting the instalment is pointed out the unavailability of Know-your-Customer (KYC) linked to beneficiary accounts.
