Farmer Doing Odd Jobs Disentitled From Mukhya Mantri Krishak Durghatana Scheme Benefit: Allahabad High Court

The Allahabad High Court ruled that a farmer who undertakes non-agricultural or odd jobs while claiming benefits under the Mukhya Mantri Krishak Durghatana Yojana cannot be entitled to insurance compensation. The bench clarified that the scheme’s eligibility requires active engagement in agriculture, and deviation constitutes a breach of conditions. The judgment reinforces statutory eligibility criteria and ensures that benefits reach genuinely qualified claimants.
