Farmers told to ensure bank accounts are active
As part of the first phase, a sum of Rs 7,000 is being deposited into each eligible farmer's account. Of this, Rs 5,000 is contributed by the state government, while Rs 2,000 is from the Central government under the PM-Kisan Yojana, the minister clarified. The scheme is designed to provide a total benefit of 20,000 to each farmer in three instalments. Durgesh stated that following the Chief Minister's directive, inaugural events are being held at Rythu Seva Kendras (Farmers' Service Centres) across the state to mark the release of funds.
Fulfilling this commitment to farmers reflects the government's dedication to public welfare and its ability to uphold the trust of the people, he added. Farmers were also advised to ensure their bank accounts are active.
For those eligible farmers who may not have received the credited amount yet, the minister urged them not to panic. He advised them to contact the helpline number 155251 or the WhatsApp Governance number 9552300003 for assistance. They may also approach their local Rythu Seva Kendras for support.

Want to invest Rs 1 lakh when you are young? Here is Raamdeo Agrawal's Warren Buffett-style blueprint to compound wealth
Raamdeo Agrawal urges young investors to avoid rushing into markets without understanding value. Learning to identify price-value gaps and mastering patience are key, he says, citing Buffett's wisdom and his own early investing lessons. Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads At 30, pick a lane: Professional or Passive? Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Everybody knows the price, nobody knows the value India and the U.S. Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads If you're 20 years old and sitting on Rs 1 lakh, Motilal Oswal co-founder Raamdeo Agrawal has one piece of advice: don't do anything till you understand it. That, he says, is among the best lessons he's learned from Warren Buffett, and it applies to both investing and a conversation on Groww's investor podcast released on YouTube, the Motilal Oswal Financial Services co-founder urged young investors to resist the pressure to act without clarity. Agrawal said most 20-year-olds underestimate how little they know about the market. 'At the age of 20, what you don't know is a lot of things… So when you see value–price gap, you will have a, what do you call, limited understanding of it.'He recalled his own investing debut, a hostel tip-off that turned into a three-bagger. 'I bought it 15 bucks, and in a year, two years' time, it became 45 bucks,' he said, noting he was around 22 at the time. 'Those kinds of breaks will happen.'Asked where Rs 1 lakh should go at 30, Agrawal said it depends on whether you want to master the game or outsource it.'If I want to make a career in investing… then you should go to the stock market and figure out what is the value, what is the price, what is the earnings growth, what is the RoE, what is the momentum. I mean, it's a full-time job, and it has become very competitive.'Otherwise, 'go and give your money to one of the fund managers and be happy with it.'Agrawal didn't hold back on what he sees as the pitfalls of post-COVID market behaviour. 'Out of 200 million demat accounts, 160 million is less than 5 years… they have no clue what they are buying and selling... (post COVID)… market is very impatient,' he stressed that understanding intrinsic value is the core skill. 'Everybody knows the price. Nobody knows the value. Once you master the formula to discover value, investing becomes simple.'And the real reward, he added, lies in spotting mispriced opportunity. 'Is the return gap between price and value… is it asymmetric? We are looking for asymmetric... Asymmetricity in the return — that's the excitement in the market.'Agrawal dismissed market timing as a flawed strategy. 'Not buying at the bottom is a crime if at all you are trying to time the market,' he said. 'By the time you muster the courage to enter, you've already missed 40% of the upmove.'He advised investors to look beyond narrative and into balance sheets. 'I go straight to 23 financial ratios,' he said. 'If two companies are equally profitable, but one collects its dues in 10 days while the other takes 90 days, the difference is huge.'Despite growing global uncertainty, Agrawal believes India is one of the only two countries in the world, alongside the United States, where macroeconomic growth consistently flows into long-term equity returns. 'There are 170 markets, but only these two allow for extrapolation of economic growth into stock performance,' he said.'India,' he said, 'is more predictable than the U.S.': Recommendations, suggestions, views and opinions given by the experts are their own.
