Punjab Rashan Card 2025 Registration and Updates

 The Government of Punjab has launched a new relief program for families facing financial hardship. The Punjab Rashan Card 2025 is part of the province’s efforts to help people manage daily living costs as inflation rises. Instead of distributing food items, the government will provide direct monthly cash support.

This article explains how the program works, who can apply, and how to complete the registration.



What the Punjab Rashan Card Program Offers

This new initiative is built on the Punjab Social Economic Registry (PSER) system. It targets low-income households, especially those struggling to meet basic needs. The main idea is simple: send monthly cash directly to those who need it most.

Key facts to know
  • Start date: May 1, 2025
  • Monthly amount: Up to PKR 10,000
  • Estimated reach: 1.2 to 1.5 million families
  • Distribution: Cash transfers through bank accounts linked to valid CNICs
  • Survey launch: April 23, 2025 (door-to-door visits)
This support can help families cover kitchen expenses, pay bills, or handle other household needs.


How to Register for Punjab Rashan Card 2025

There are two ways to apply. Choose whichever option works best for you.
