The Benazir Taleemi Wazifa is a government program started by the Government of Pakistan to help poor and deserving families send their children to school. This program is part of the Benazir Income Support Program (BISP). It helps families who are already registered under the Benazir Kafalat Program by giving money for their children’s education.
Now, the document verification process for April 2025 has started. All families who want to receive the new payments must complete the verification by visiting the nearest BISP Tehsil Office.
What is Benazir Taleemi Wazifa?
Benazir Taleemi Wazifa gives financial help to poor children so they can continue their education. Many poor families cannot afford school fees, books, and transport costs. This program supports those families by giving monthly stipends to children.
The program gives Rs. 2,000 to boys and Rs. 3,000 to girls every three months. Girls are given more money to reduce the gender gap in education and to encourage parents to send their daughters to school.
