Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif chaired a special meeting to review recommendations for launching the ‘Nigahban Ramadan Relief Package’, aimed at supporting underprivileged families in the province during Ramadan.
CM Nawaz emphasized that the relief package is both a right of the needy and the responsibility of the government. She also stressed that the distribution must be dignified, without queues for the public.
Citizens can register for the package online through the PSER portal or at over 4,000 registration centers across the province, located in Union Councils and Municipal Offices.
The registration deadline is February 15. The online registration process requires candidates to provide personal details and create a login password for future use.
The launch of the online portal and helpline aims to ensure transparency and accessibility to all eligible families.
Eligibility criteria: who is eligible?
To qualify for the Nigahban Ramadan relief package, households must meet these criteria: a poverty score below 30%, a monthly income of less than PKR 60,000 and the head of the household must have a valid CNIC.
The family must be permanent residents of Punjab, with no members living abroad and no vehicles registered in the name of the household.
For registration, candidates can visit the PSER portal to complete their details online or visit any of the 4,000 registration centers across Punjab.
At the end, they will receive a confirmation or receipt.
