In a significant welfare drive, Annadata Sukhibhava disbursed ₹107 crore in Eluru district, empowering 16 lakh+ farmers with direct cash transfers under the PM‑Kisan‑integrated scheme. Each farmer received ₹7,000 in the first tranche—₹5,000 from Andhra Pradesh and ₹2,000 via PM‑Kisan—with further installments planned. This initiative exemplifies digital efficiency and accountability, reinforced by rigorous e‑KYC verification and real‑time checks involving NPCI and RTGS systems .
The state’s proactive verification ensured dormant or unlinked accounts were rectified before disbursement, minimizing delays and maximizing impact . As part of the celebrated “Super Six” welfare pledge, the scheme promises a total ₹20,000 annually. Eluru’s successful rollout highlights AP’s robust Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) architecture and boosts confidence in the government’s farmer‑centric approach.
This financial boost not only eases immediate economic burdens but also strengthens the agricultural backbone of Andhra Pradesh. With continued discipline in execution and strong tech‑enabled systems, Annadata Sukhibhava is setting a new benchmark in inclusive rural policy implementation, reinforcing its central role in the state’s farming development and welfare strategy.
