Moreover, the event was part of a broader push for development in Bihar.
In his address, CM Nitish Kumar highlighted that over 76,000 farmers in the state were benefitting from the instalment, calling the PM Kisan Yojana a game-changer for small farmers.
Additionally, Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan praised PM Modi for launching the scheme, while also criticizing past Congress governments for not providing direct financial assistance to farmers.

Union Minister Chouhan stated, “This scheme is a gift for farmers, which no previous government ever gave.”
Furthermore, he emphasized the government’s understanding of farmers’ struggles.
Similarly, Bihar CM Nitish Kumar echoed these sentiments, stressing the importance of direct funds transfer to farmers.
Implications & Future Actions:
PM Modi’s visit to Bihar and the release of the 19th instalment of the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana come at a significant time, coinciding with the upcoming Bihar Legislative Assembly elections, expected later this year.
