The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has officially announced a significant update for its beneficiaries in 2026. Senator Rubina Khalid, the Chairperson of BISP, recently shared that the quarterly installment is set to increase from 13,500 rupees to 14,500 rupees. This news comes as a major relief for millions of families across Pakistan who rely on this financial support to meet their basic needs.
BISP continues to support the most vulnerable families in Pakistan.
One of the most innovative changes introduced this year is the "Social Protection Wallet." This new digital system is designed to make the payment process more secure and transparent. Along with the wallet, BISP is also providing free SIM cards to all women beneficiaries. This initiative ensures that every recipient can receive their funds directly into their digital accounts, eliminating the need for long queues and reducing the risk of illegal deductions by middlemen.
