Since it is an ongoing scheme and beneficiaries are added continuously, it is not possible to give an estimate of the expenditure till 2022, he said. The minister said around 7.6 crore farmers have been granted benefit till 30 November 2019 under the scheme. The amount is directly transferred into the bank accounts of the beneficiaries.
