Palaniswami stressed that the state government had detected the scam, ordered a probe and legal action will be taken against the culprits. He said the officials got suspicious since a large number of people got benefitted under the scheme and probe was ordered. Under the PM-Kisan Scheme, small farmers with two hectare or less land are given Rs 6,000 per year as assistance in three equal instalments.
