Lucknow. The Uttar Pradesh government is fully committed to the welfare of farmers as per the vision of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. In this direction, the Revenue Council is rapidly moving forward the process of making the Chief Minister Farmer Accident Welfare Scheme completely digital. The deadline for digitization of this scheme has been fixed as February 2026.
The scheme will be completely online by February 2026
In the meeting of the Chief Secretary, Revenue Council officials informed that the work of digitalization of the scheme will be completed within the stipulated time. After the completion of the process, the operation of the scheme will be completely online, so that in case of an accident, farmer families will be able to get compensation sitting at home. This will make the scheme more timely, effective and transparent.
Modern web portal being developed with the help of NIC
As per the instructions of the Chief Minister, a modern web portal and software is being developed for the scheme with the help of National Informatics Center (NIC). The entire process of application, document upload, verification, approval and benefit distribution will be online through this portal. Earlier applications could be made online, but other processes were through physical verification, requiring farmers to visit tehsil and district offices.
You will get relief from the problem of going to office again and again
After the scheme becomes completely digital, farmers will not have to visit offices at any level. This will not only save time and resources, but will also effectively prevent the possibilities of corruption. Officials said that the work of updating the portal is going on and it will be completed by February 2026.
