Sahiwal Residents to Receive BISP Kafalat Payments – Check Your Kafalat Amount

In a significant move to improve the accessibility of social protection services, the federal government has launched a BISP (Benazir Income Support Program) camp office in Sahiwal. This new office aims to simplify the registration process for low-income families, allowing more people to benefit from the BISP Kafalat initiative.

The camp office was officially inaugurated by Syed Imran Ahmad Shah, the Federal Minister for Poverty Alleviation and Social Safety, who highlighted the government’s ongoing efforts to address the needs of vulnerable communities. Shah emphasized that the Prime Minister, Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif, is fully committed to improving the welfare of the people, with a strong focus on supporting low-income families through targeted initiatives.

Speaking at the inauguration ceremony, Shah said, “The Government of Pakistan has launched a series of integrated and targeted initiatives to uplift vulnerable communities. Eliminating unemployment and enhancing public prosperity remain top government priorities.” He also reassured the public that despite challenges, Pakistan is on a path of development and progress, with efforts in place to improve the economic well-being of all citizens.

BISP Kafalat Payment Update for November 2025

The BISP Kafalat program, which has been a cornerstone of social protection in Pakistan since its launch in 2008, continues to serve as the country’s largest cash transfer initiative. Designed to assist marginalized communities, the program aims to mitigate the effects of inflation, economic downturns, and food crises on vulnerable households.

Each quarter, BISP releases Rs 13,500 per eligible family. This amount is expected to increase starting from January 2026. The program’s short-term objectives are centered around protecting low-income groups from economic shocks, while its long-term goals are focused on eradicating extreme poverty and empowering women, in line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

BISP payments are disbursed four times a year, with each installment covering the first quarter (January-March), second quarter (April-June), third quarter (July-September), and fourth quarter (October-December). As of now, families are advised to check their eligibility and payment status through the newly opened BISP camp office in Sahiwal or via online platforms.

Government’s Commitment to Social Welfare

Minister Shah reinforced the government’s dedication to improving the economic status of the country’s marginalized populations. “Through initiatives like BISP, in collaboration with various welfare and development organizations, we aim to ease the lives of citizens and ensure a more prosperous future for all,” he said. The BISP camp office in Sahiwal will provide an essential gateway for residents to register for the program and receive their due benefits, ensuring that no family is left behind in the drive to combat poverty.

The government’s commitment to these welfare schemes, despite economic challenges, reflects a focus on social stability and support for the most vulnerable. The inauguration of the Sahiwal office marks a major step forward in the expansion of these essential services across Pakistan.
