What is Krishak Bandhu Scheme 2.0
Krishak Bandhu Scheme 2.0 was a part of Trinamool Congress’s poll manifesto and would benefit over 62 lakh farmers in the state. On 17 June 2021, 9.78 lakh farmers were handed over Rs. 290 crore through Direct Benefit Transfer. The state govt. has already provided death benefits to Rs. 28,000 farmers and their families would receive Rs. 2 lakh if they died before 60 years of age.
Under the new plan, farmers with landholding of 1 acre or more would be entitled to receive Rs 10,000 per annum instead of the previous assistance of Rs. 5,000 annually. Even the assistance for those holding land below one acre or less and for marginal farmers has been doubled from Rs. 2,000 to Rs. 4,000 per year.
Krishak Bandhu 2.0 Better than PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana
Thus Krishak Bandhu Scheme will give farmers a better benefit than PM Kisan, a central government scheme in which farmers get a funding of Rs 6,000 annually, in three equal instalments. However, not all farmers are included in PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. Now all the farmers and share croppers would be included in Krishak Bandhu Scheme 2.0 with an increased assistance of Rs. 10,000 for 1 acre and more cultivable land while Rs. 4000 for less than 1 acre of cultivable land. The Bengal government had rolled out the Krishak Bandhu scheme in 2018 and around Rs. 1,500 crore has been disbursed to farmers till February 2021.
Also, there is a death benefit scheme under which a farmer’s family gets a sum of Rs 2 lakh if the farmer dies within 60 years of age. On 14 May, CM Mamata Banerjee had written an open letter to farmers in which she criticised the Centre for its dilly-dallying on “PM Kisan” at a time when it released the first instalment of funds of the scheme to 7 lakh farmers of Bengal. The CM had stated the decision to extend benefits of the scheme to eligible farmers in Bengal was a result of her government’s constant fight.
