Budget: PM-KISAN fund allocation may be trimmed by 20%

Agriculture ministry has sought Rs 60,000 crore for the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana for the next fiscal while the government had allocated Rs 75,000 crore for this year, an official said. This is because the government has been able to disburse only Rs 44,000 crore so far this fiscal under the scheme, the official added.
