Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana
The Government has proposed to initiate the scheme “Pradhan Mantri
Krishi Sinchayee Yojana”. Announcing this during his maiden Budget Speech in
the Lok Sabha, the Finance Minister Shri Arun Jaitley said that there was a
need to provide assured irrigation to mitigate risk to the farmer since bulk of
the farm lands are rainfed and depend on monsoon. This scheme would facilitate
access to irrigation. Shri Jaitley said that a sum of Rs.1, 000 crores is being
set aside for this scheme.
