Common Mistakes — Why Krushi Swavalamban Yojana Applications Get Rejected
- ✗Applying when the 7/12 and 8A land records are in a relative's name rather than the applicant's own name.
- ✗Submitting an invalid or expired SC caste certificate from a non-competent authority.
- ✗Starting the well or irrigation work before the District Agriculture Office completes physical verification, which can void the subsidy.
- ✗Using a bank account that is not Aadhaar-seeded, so the component subsidy DBT fails.
