Pradhan Mantri Kisan Maan-Dhan Yojana (PM-KMY)

இது என்ன?

Pradhan Mantri Kisan Maan-Dhan Yojana is a pension scheme for small and marginal farmers. It is meant to give farmers a fixed income in old age, when they may no longer be able to work the land.

A farmer who joins pays a small amount every month until turning 60. The published contribution is between Rs 55 and Rs 200 per month, and the exact amount depends on the age at which the farmer joins - a farmer joining at 18 pays Rs 55 a month, and one joining at 40 pays Rs 200 a month. The Central Government pays an equal amount into the same account.

From the age of 60, the member receives an assured pension of Rs 3,000 per month. If the member dies after the pension has started, the spouse receives 50% of that pension, which is Rs 1,500 per month, as family pension. If the member dies before turning 60, the spouse may choose to continue the scheme by paying the remaining contributions, or take back the contributions made along with interest.

The published eligibility is a farmer aged 18 to 40 years who owns cultivable land up to 2 hectares as per the land records of the concerned State or Union Territory. A number of groups are excluded, including people already covered by other statutory social security schemes, those who have opted for PM-SYM or PM-LVM, institutional landholders, holders of constitutional posts, serving and retired government employees, income tax payers, and registered professionals such as doctors, engineers, lawyers and chartered accountants.

Enrolment is free of cost at a Common Service Centre. The pension fund is managed by the Life Insurance Corporation of India. A point often misunderstood: the pension amount cannot be taken as a lump sum - commutation is not allowed.
