• Pune district administration to conduct door-to-door verification for 61,000 PM Kisan beneficiaries.
• These farmers have not registered under the AgriStack (Farmer ID Number) scheme, which is now mandatory for government agricultural benefits.
• District Collector Jitendra Hudi ordered Revenue and Agriculture departments to physically verify eligibility and facilitate AgriStack registration.
• If farmers are found ineligible or fail to register for AgriStack, their PM Kisan Yojana benefits may be stopped.
• Administration suspects some farmers avoid AgriStack registration due to concerns about land details affecting eligibility.
