Uttar Pradesh’s agricultural heartland now has a formidable guardian in the form of Chief Minister Krishak Dugdhagya Kalyan Yojana, courtesy of Yogi Adityanath’s farmer-first policies. Since rolling out in 2019, it has extended financial succor to more than 108,000 families reeling from accidents.
Compensation reaches ₹5 lakh for death or disability cases, with FY 2025-26 witnessing ₹873.58 crore flow to 18,145 recipients via revenue channels. The scheme’s ambit grew in 2023-24 under CM oversight, incorporating landless farmers and laborers, disbursing ₹944.72 crore to 23,821 souls.
Total outreach: 1,08,098 families fortified, injecting vitality into village finances. A digital overhaul, directed by the CM, features an NIC-built web portal ready by February 2026. Expect seamless online submissions, direct-to-account transfers, and zero tolerance for delays or malpractices.
Dashboard integration will provide live tracking, epitomizing efficiency. In an era of farming risks, this Yogi initiative not only rescues families but cements a legacy of empathetic, tech-savvy governance, empowering Annadatas to thrive.
