 +<WRAP info>
 +**In one line.** PM-KISAN pays Rs. 2,000 every four months to eligible farmers. Installments get stuck on land seeding, Aadhaar mismatch, or eKYC. RTI to the district Nodal Officer extracts the specific hold-up and expected release.
 +</WRAP>
 +
 +Part of **[[:rti-for-money-and-schemes|Pillar 4 — RTI for Money & Schemes]]**. Companion: [[:rti-for-government-scheme-delay|generic scheme delay RTI]].
 +
 +===== What is the problem =====
 +
 +Stoppages trace to:
 +  * **Land-seeding incomplete** — revenue record not matched.
 +  * **Aadhaar-name mismatch** — RoR name differs from Aadhaar.
 +  * **eKYC pending** — bio / OTP / face eKYC.
 +  * **Bank account not NPCI-mapped** for DBT.
 +  * **Self-declaration** (income-tax assessee / pensioner / constitutional post) exclusion triggered.
 +  * **PFMS batch rejection** — treasury-level.
 +
 +===== When to use RTI =====
 +
 +  * 2+ installments missed.
 +  * Portal shows "FTO generated" but no credit.
 +  * eKYC "done" but status shows pending.
 +  * Name spelling difference flagged.
 +
 +===== What you can ask =====
 +
 +  * Beneficiary ID status in PM-KISAN portal.
 +  * Land-seeding status and matching khasra number.
 +  * Aadhaar-seeding + NPCI mapping log.
 +  * eKYC completion date + method.
 +  * PFMS batch / FTO reference.
 +  * Reason for installment hold (exclusion rule invoked, if any).
 +  * Estimated release date.
 +  * Nodal Officer contact.
 +
 +===== Step-by-step RTI filing =====
 +
 +  * State RTI portal → **Department of Agriculture** → District Agriculture Officer.
 +  * Copy to the Ministry of Agriculture & Farmers Welfare via ''rtionline.gov.in''.
 +  * Rs. 10 fee; BPL free.

 +===== 10 RTI questions =====

 +  - PFMS FTO reference.
 +  - Hold reason.

 +  * **Day 10–25** Nodal Officer / revenue office often resolves the mismatch during this window.
 +  * **Day 30** Written reply.
 +
 +===== Common mistakes =====
 +
 +  * Using Aadhaar full number — only last 4.
 +  * Not citing Beneficiary ID.
 +  * Filing at state HQ instead of district Nodal Officer.
 +  * Skipping land-seeding question.
 +
 +===== Pro tips =====
 +
 +  * **Visit CSC** for eKYC if online eKYC fails — cost Rs. 15.
 +  * **Patwari / Revenue office** visit for name correction on RoR.
 +  * **PFMS UTR** is the ultimate proof of disbursement — ask in Question 5.
 +  * **Parallel PM-KISAN helpline** 155261 — log the complaint with reference.
 +
 +===== FAQs =====
 +
 +**Q1. How many installments per year?**\\ Three, of Rs. 2,000 each, totalling Rs. 6,000.
 +
 +**Q2. Is land seeding one-time?**\\ Yes, but revenue changes (mutation, subdivision) may trigger re-seeding.
 +
 +**Q3. Exclusion list?**\\ Income-tax assessees, institutional landowners, pensioners > Rs. 10,000/month, doctors/CAs/engineers, etc.
 +
 +**Q4. Can NRIs get PM-KISAN?**\\ No.
 +
 +===== Conclusion =====
 +
 +PM-KISAN is rule-based and system-traceable. Most stalls are administrative mismatches; RTI makes the mismatch visible and fixable.
