Benazir Kafalat Program Payments February 2025
Benazir Kafalat Program Payments February 2025 have been launched to provide financial assistance to deserving women in Pakistan. The government has increased the amount of assistance this year and now each deserving woman will be given Rs 13,500, which is more than Rs 10,500 last year. This amount is being given to help women meet their daily needs in view of the increasing pressure of inflation.
Payments for old beneficiary women will be made using the same procedure as before, who will receive payments through bank accounts, BISP payment centers, or mobile wallets such as JazzCash and EasyPaisa. New beneficiary women will first have to complete their registration and verification process, then they will receive the assistance of Rs 13,500. Make sure that your details are updated so that you can receive payments on time.
Under the Benazir Kafalat Program Payments February 2025, women who wish to check their eligibility can check their eligibility by sending an SMS to 8171, visiting the BISP website or visiting the local BISP office. The payments will start from the second or third week of this month, so all beneficiary women are advised to stay updated officially to avoid any delays.
