CM Kisan Yojana Odisha
The Odisha CM Kisan Yojana is a special scheme launched by Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi to help around 46 lakh farmers, including those who do not own land. The scheme was introduced on September 8, 2024, during the Nuakhai festival, a major celebration in the state.
This scheme is important because it supports farmers who were not covered under the PM-Kisan Yojana. It also includes benefits for farmers' children through the Krushi Vidya Nidhi Yojana, which provides scholarships for higher education in technical fields.
