Beginning today, the Punjab Government formally resumed its Ehsaas Rashan Subsidy Programme for 2026 and began allocating money through the Negahban Card. Low-income households have been having trouble meeting their everyday food requirements with high inflation and Ramadan drawing near. The Punjab Government has therefore reopened the subsidy programme and made it easier for applicants to be confirmed.
To guarantee that just economically impoverished homes get subsidies, the eligibility verification process for the subsidy programme would now depend on data from the Punjab Socio-Economic Registry (PSER) spread sheet and the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) list.
Fundamental Features of the Negahban Rashan Program 2026
- Beneficiaries: low-income families, widows, hourly workers
