Did you know that those eligible for financial assistance can carry out their Ehsaas Program CNIC check online from the comfort of their homes without any hassle?
Launched in March 2019, Ehsaas Program is one of the most widely commended social safety and poverty alleviation initiatives introduced by the Government of Pakistan. This flagship welfare plan has been designed to extend help to the members of lower-income families across the country. There are presently over a hundred programs running under the umbrella of Ehsaas, the most prominent of which include Ehsaas Kafalat, Ehsaas Nashonuma, and Ehsaas Rashan Riayat.
Since there is quite a lot of misinformation available online, we have outlined the official procedure for Ehsaas Program online registration to help out those in need of aid. It is also important to note that the entire system has been digitised to enhance transparency and efficiency, allowing people to conduct an Ehsaas Program CNIC check with a few taps on their smartphone screens.
Disclaimer: Earlier this year, Ehsaas Program was rebranded as Benazir Income Support Program (BISP).
