Everything else is marked not published, rather than filled in.

CM Punjab Dialysis Program Card

health · Chief Minister's Office, Government of the Punjab, through the CM Special Monitoring Unit

  • Documents

    No document list is published.

  • Deadline
    • The card issuance process will be completed by February 2026

The page also states "Imams involved in misconduct to lose honorarium under new Punjab policy".

Apni Chhat, Mehfooz Chhat

housing loan · helpline 0800-09100

  • Who is eligible

    The Portal page says only that the scheme is for "low-income families across the province". Apni Chhat Apna Ghar's published criteria are for construction of a new house, so they are not carried over here.

  • Documents
    • An affidavit stating unmarried status and willingness to participate in the collective ceremony
  • Deadline

    No deadline is published.

overseas employment loan 1

Hunarmand Naujawan Parwaaz Card

    Still not published: The maximum loan amount is not published on the Portal page.

  • How to apply

    The Portal page gives no application steps; it directs applicants to parwaaz.psdf.org.pk, which served no readable text on the read date.

  • Documents

    No document list is published beyond the international job offer letter named in the eligibility criteria.

  • Deadline

    No deadline is published on the Portal page.

registry 1

Punjab Socio-Economic Registry (PSER)

registry · Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB) collects the data; the Punjab Social Protection Authority (PSPA) cleans and validates it

  • Who is eligible

    Neither page publishes who may or must register. Both describe a province-wide household survey rather than an eligibility test.

  • What you get

    Registration is not a payment and no amount exists to record. The Portal page says it opens access to "various government facilities"; pser.punjab.gov.pk says the data is used to determine eligibility for social protection programmes and development planning.

  • How to apply
    • Visit one of the 5,000 centers established throughout the province
    • Trained enumerators also collect family data at households door to door
  • Documents

    No list of papers to bring is published. The Portal page names the data the form asks for - CNIC number and family head name, two mobile numbers with their respective networks, current and permanent address, health, education and employment status, and assets including dwelling, livestock, agricultural land and transport - which is not the same thing.

  • Deadline
    • pser.punjab.gov.pk displays "Last Date: January 31, 2025"

    Still not published: That date had passed by the read date and the page does not say whether registration reopened.

Registration is the gate to several of the schemes below - the Rahmat Card and Apni Chhat Apna Ghar both screen on a PSER/PMT score - so it is recorded here even though it pays nothing itself.

scholarship 2

CM Punjab Honhaar Scholarship Program

scholarship · Sponsoring agency: Higher Education Department. Executing agency: Punjab Higher Education Commission (PHEC)

  • Who is eligible
    • Applicants must have a domicile from any district of Punjab
    • Family monthly income must be less than Rs. 300,000 (an affidavit is required)
    • Enrolled in the 3rd to 8th semester, or in the 2nd to 5th year of MBBS/BDS
    • Public Sector Medical and Dental Colleges >=80%
    • Public Sector Universities >=70% for Sciences and >=65% for Arts
    • Federal and Private Universities >=70% for Sciences and >=65% for Arts
    • HED Colleges >=65% for Sciences and >=60% for Arts
  • What you get
    • The scholarship covers 100% of the tuition fee

  • Documents
    • Affidavit of family monthly income

    Still not published: No fuller document list is published.

  • Deadline

    No deadline is published on either page.

The two official pages disagree on the merit threshold. The Higher Education Department notice of 11 October 2024 is headed as a revision and its figures are the ones recorded; the CM Special Monitoring Unit page still shows 70%/65%/60%. Say the figure is disputed between two government pages rather than picking one silently.

Punjab Educational Endowment Fund (PEEF) scholarships

scholarship · Punjab Educational Endowment Fund (PEEF), Government of the Punjab · helpline (92) 42 111-11-7333

  • Who is eligible
    • PEEF Scholarships: for talented students of Punjab and other provinces, AJK, FATA, Gilgit Baltistan and ICT

    • AJK Scholarships: needy & talented students of AJ&K, for Intermediate, Graduation and Master's level degree courses

    Still not published: No marks threshold, income limit or age limit is published on the pages read, for any of the programmes.

  • What you get

    No scholarship amount, stipend or fee coverage is published on the pages read. The hub page calls it "Scholarships at the doorstep" and nothing more.

  • How to apply

    No application route is published on the pages read. An AJK student portal is linked at http://student.peef.org.pk:8085/, which is not a punjab.gov.pk host and was not read.

  • Documents

    No document list is published.

  • Deadline

    No deadline is published on the pages read.

As published: PEEF says that with the 2025-26 scholarships included, the total awarded will be raised to more than 505,000.

PEEF names these programmes without publishing criteria or amounts for them: PEEF Scholarships, CMMS Scholarships (PhD), AJK Scholarships, HR&MA Scholarships, Master Level Scholarships, Outreach Scholarships, Special Quota Scholarships, Scholarships for Other Provinces, Punjab Board of Technical Education, and Center of Excellence. Names are all this corpus holds for them.

Nigehban Card

social protection · Government of the Punjab; implementation monitored by PERA and district price control committees, with the CM Special Monitoring Unit · helpline 0800-02345

  • Who is eligible

    Neither page publishes criteria. The Portal names "low-income households" and "deserving families"; the CM Special Monitoring Unit page names the "destitute and vulnerable".

  • What you get
    • Rs. 10,000 cash assistance per eligible family
    • Distribution planned for 4 million families across Punjab
    • Access to essential goods at approximately 15% below market rates

    • Register through the online portal pser.punjab.gov.pk, or visit your local Union Council or municipal offices for assistance

    • Full distribution targeted by 10th Ramzan (Portal page)

    Still not published: The registration date had passed by the read date; no later window is published.

punjab.gov.pk publishes this as "Ramzan Nigehban Card" and smu.punjab.gov.pk as "CM Nigheban Card Program". Both describe the same Ramzan relief card and both pages are cited here; neither says they are the same scheme, so treat the pairing as this corpus's reading, not theirs.

Not here, because they are federal

This site covers Punjab only. These come up constantly alongside the schemes above and are run by the federal government, so we hold nothing on them and will not guess.

  • Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) — federal. Several Punjab schemes screen on a BISP PMT score, which does not make BISP a Punjab scheme.
  • Ehsaas and Ehsaas Kafaalat — federal.
  • Sehat Sahulat Programme — federal.
  • Pakistan Bait-ul-Mal — federal, and a different body from the Punjab Bait-ul-Maal Council listed above.
  • The Prime Minister's Youth Programme laptop scheme — federal. The Punjab laptop programme is listed above.
