AI Summary"Present in PM Kisan" on your Krishak Bandhu status means your name is also in the central PM Kisan beneficiary list. West Bengal's Agriculture Department is matching Krishak Bandhu records with the PM Kisan database during the 2026 verification, and this line shows up for farmers found in both.
However, this status alone does not say whether Krishak Bandhu money will come. That depends on your later Krishak Bandhu approval and payment status.
Why Krishak Bandhu Status is Showing "Present in PM Kisan"?
Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari announced that PM Kisan farmers in the state will get ₹3,000 a year extra from the state, so ₹9,000 in all instead of ₹6,000. To find who these farmers are, Krishak Bandhu data is being checked against PM Kisan, and matching farmers are being marked on the Krishak Bandhu portal.
On 28 September 2026, Agriculture Minister Dudh Kumar Mondal also said that farmers who join Krishak Bandhu fresh will not get PM Kisan. The formal order for these rules is not on the portal yet, and no payment date has been announced.
