What next after PM KISAN EKYC deadline ended on July 31
Although, there has been no official confirmation on the extension of PM KISAN EKYC from the government, it cannot be said what the exact repurcursions would be. Would farmers be able to complete their EKYC in a new set deadline? Will they be able to finish the process using some other mode? As of now, it is completely the government’s decision. Farmers will have to wait for new instructions from the government as and when they come.
