Explanation:

Here’s the thing:

- The Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-Kisan) scheme is all about giving direct income support to farmers. It sticks out as one of the central government’s big-ticket commitments to rural India.

- In the Union Budget 2022-23, the exact amount allocated to PM-Kisan was Rs 68,000 crore. That’s the official figure presented in the Budget documents.

- Let’s look at your options:

- Option 1: Rs 60,000 crore – That’s lower than what was announced.

- Option 2: Rs 62,000 crore – Still not it.

- Option 3: Rs 65,000 crore – Close, but not the right number.

- Option 4: Rs 68,000 crore –  This is the correct allocation.

- Option 5: Rs 70,000 crore – Too high for that year.

So, if you picked Option 4—Rs 68,000 crore—. This was the figure specifically set aside for direct cash transfers to farmers under PM-Kisan for 2022-23. The other numbers aren’t correct for that budget year—though Rs 65,000 crore and Rs 70,000 crore might pop up for other schemes or years, but not for 2022-23's PM-Kisan allocation.
