Why Has the PM Kisan 20th Installment Not Come Yet?

Many farmers are wondering why the ₹2000 installment under the PM Kisan Yojana has been delayed. Here are the likely reasons:

• PM Modi’s Foreign Tour: According to media reports, PM Modi is currently on an international visit. He has recently visited the Maldives and is now in the UK. Since PM Modi personally releases the PM Kisan installments, the 20th installment will likely be released after his return to India.

• No Official Reason Given: The official website pmkisan.gov.in has not mentioned any reason for the delay.

When Will the 20th Installment Be Released?

Based on previous records and official hints, the 20th installment may be released by the end of July 2025. Here are some key indicators:

• The chatbot ‘Kisan E-Mitra’ on the PM Kisan website suggests that the installment could come in July 2025.

• PM Modi is scheduled to host the ‘Mann Ki Baat’ program on 27 July 2025, and it is possible that he may announce the installment on the same day.

• Looking at past years:

• 17th installment: 18 June 2024

• 14th installment: 27 July 2023

• 11th installment: 1 June 2022

Based on this trend, July 27 or before July 31 seems to be a likely date for the 20th installment.

Beware of Fake News and Misleading Information

There is a lot of false information being spread on social media regarding the PM Kisan installment. The official PM Kisan Twitter account has urged farmers to trust only official sources, such as:
