Secretary Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) Amer Ali Ahmad affirmed BISP’s status as a global model of social safety, providing financial assistance to 9.3 million households under its Kafaalat initiative. The program extends its reach to 8.2 million school-going children through stipends and 1.22 million individuals through Nashonuma support, ensuring inclusivity without discrimination.
Secretary Ahmad made these remarks during a visit to BISP headquarters by a delegation from the National Institute of Management (NIM), Peshawar. The delegation, comprising two faculty members and 18 participants from the 38th Mid-Career Management Course (MCMC), gained insights into BISP’s operations and its commitment to uplifting marginalized communities.
Emphasizing BISP’s inclusive approach, Secretary Ahmad highlighted the organization’s efforts to identify beneficiary families and introduce skill development programs for the children of BISP beneficiaries. These initiatives aim to empower individuals and break the cycle of poverty.
