BISP to Begin Fund Disbursement
So, the Benazir Income Support Program has formally announced the beginning of its fund disbursement for the quarter of September to December 2024. In this program, the country’s needy families are supposed to be provided with economic support of which women would be the focal point. In Sargodha district, over 73,000 registered women will receive Rs 10,500 each so these payments also reflect the poverty alleviation and Social Protection strategy of the government.
یہ پروگرام پاکستان کے زیادہ تر خاندانوں کے لیے ضروری ہے، خاص طور پر دیہی علاقوں میں جہاں مالی وسائل محدود ہیں۔ بی آئی ایس پی کا خواتین کے لیے ہدف خواتین کو معاشی طور پر بااختیار بنانے کی کوشش کرتا ہے، جبکہ یہ مالی آزادی کے حوالے سے صنفی مساوات کو بھی فروغ دیتا ہے۔ اس پروگرام نے غریب ترین گھرانوں کو خوراک، تعلیم اور صحت کی دیکھ بھال جیسے بنیادی اخراجات کو پورا کرنے کے لیے کافی حفاظتی جال فراہم کرنے کا انتظام کیا ہے۔

Details of Fund Disbursement
Beneficiaries are being sent to the nearest camp site for realization of their amount. For this reason, in Sargodha district 14 campsites have been developed. Five camps have been established in Sargodha city, while two camps have been developed each in Silanwali and Sahiwal, two camps are also present in Kotmoman and one each is available at Bhera, Shahpur, and Bhalwal. Multiple campsites have been a step to ensure that all eligible women receive their fund conveniently and without much delay.
The BISP has developed a joint effort with the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) to regularize stipend payment. This collaboration will make the stipend disbursement process transparent and effective, so the stipend receivers will be paid honorably. Consultation between BISP and the State Bank would, the SBP Governor said, create a simple, effective stipend disbursal procedure that would further enhance the integrity of the program.

Handling of Fraudulent Activities
The latest fraud cases, however, have brought a tarnishing cloud over this newly introduced BISP. Just very recently, three people-mostly the husband and wife duo-were arrested for bogus activities at BISP Center. It has been reported that this retailer was reportedly disbursing funds mainly to female nominees suggested by his wife, thus skipping quite a number of the deserving candidates.
These fraudulent activities demanded a quick response from the local agencies. As Assistant Director Zafar received numerous complaints and after verifying its authenticity, he visited the center. The law enforcing agencies reacted towards the accused in this scenario, which shows BISP maintains transparency and fairness in the fund distribution process.
