What is Kisan Credit Card? |
|
Answer» The Kisan Credit Card (KCC) programme was launched by the NDA government in 1998. With this scheme, the government aimed to fulfill timely and short-term credit needs of the farmers of India during the planting and harvesting season. It was also introduced to reduce the dependence of Indian farmers on the informal banking sector like moneylenders. Kisan Credit Cards are offered by cooperative banks, public sector banks, and regional rural banks. They can be availed by any farmer in India. |
