Ramzan Relief Package 2026
The Government of Pakistan (Federal) and the Government of Punjab (under the Nigehban Program) created the Ramzan Relief Package 2026 as a unique welfare program to assist deprived and worthy families during the holy month of Ramadan. This package is intended to give families monetary assistance and a subsidized or free ration so they can observe Ramadan with ease and dignity in the face of rising inflation and food prices. Families who are already registered with BISP, NSER, or PSER may be automatically eligible for 2026 as the government has migrated to a digital-first system. To be eligible for benefits, however, new families or those with recent information must complete the Dynamic Survey or apply online.
