Know complete information about the loan waiver scheme
The government offered loan waivers to farmers in many states so they could pay off their debts and get a loan from banks.
The Yogi government in UP is now ready to launch the loan waiver program. The state will be able to benefit approximately 5000 farmers.
We are today informing our farmer brothers about the loan waiver program of the UP government.
Why the loan waiver scheme will begin again in Uttar Pradesh
The scheme was stopped by Yogi Adityanath, the UP Chief Minister, in September 2019. This meant that many eligible farmers could not take advantage of this program.
Media reports claim that there were approximately 5 000 such farmers who were eligible for the scheme.
However, they couldn’t receive the benefits of the scheme. These farmers approached the High Court. The state government now wants to offer these farmers the loan waiver program.
The government would like to see farmers who are not eligible for the loan waiver program be eligible.
The state government is ready to restart this program. Budget provision can be made for this purpose by September-October of this year.
Which farmers’ loans will be waived under the scheme
According to a source, the loan waiver program will only be available to farmers whose petitions are pending at the High Court.
The government will soon provide funds in the supplementary budget to help with this. All outstanding agricultural loans owed to farmers can then be canceled.
Let us inform you that the Yogi Adityanath government announced loan waivers for farmers as soon as it became power in March 2017.
The Yogi Adityanath government announced that farmers would no longer be able to borrow money from them if they had taken out loans before March 31, 2016.
This scheme will waive the loans of marginal and small farmers. This scheme will allow farmers to get loans up to 1 lakh rupees.
How many farmers got the advantage of the loan waiver scheme till now
The loan waiver scheme in the U.S. has allowed the repayment of loans owed to about 86 lakh farmers.
However, 33,408 farmers still need loan waivers. The majority of these farmers are from the general category.
They have submitted their application and completed other processes. Now they can apply for a loan waiver from the government.
These farmers need Rs 200 crore to get their loan waiver. In this case, the High Court summoned also the State Government.
