Punjab Announces Rs. 10,000 for 4.2 Million Families in Ramadan

The Punjab government approved a Rs. 47 billion Ramadan Nigehban Package to support deserving families during the holy month. Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz chaired a meeting to review Ramadan preparations and other public relief measures, where the package was finalized.

Under the package, the government will provide Rs. 10,000 to 4.2 million families. Authorities will issue more than two million Nigehban Cards, enabling beneficiaries to access cash assistance and buy essential commodities.

The cards will also allow cash withdrawals through Bank of Punjab branchless banking agents and ATMs connected to the One-Link network. Officials said the government will set up 136 card activation centers across the province to ensure smooth implementation.

They will also launch a Ramadan Nigehban Dashboard to monitor and verify the distribution. Ration card holders will receive Rs. 10,000 during Ramadan, up from the current Rs. 3,000 monthly assistance.
