BISP Chairperson’s Meeting with Gilgit Baltistan Chief Minister

During her visit to Gilgit Baltistan, Chairperson Rubina Khalid met with the Chief Minister, Haji Gulbar Khan. They discussed important issues affecting the beneficiaries of the BISP Kafalat Program. One of the main concerns was to ensure that beneficiaries can easily receive their monthly payments through the online system. The Chief Minister agreed to work on improving the system so that everyone can get their payments without difficulty.

Internet Problems in Tribal Areas

One major issue discussed in the meeting was the lack of internet in tribal areas of Gilgit Baltistan. This problem makes it difficult for residents to access their BISP payments. Rubina Khalid urged the Chief Minister to provide internet services in these areas so that beneficiaries do not have to travel long distances to receive their payments. The goal is to make the process faster and more transparent by using the online platform for payments.

Technical and Financial Challenges

In Gilgit Baltistan, many people face financial difficulties due to limited job opportunities. During the meeting, the Chief Minister requested that the Poverty Management Tool (PMT) score be increased for the region. This would allow more people to qualify for the BISP Kafalat Program and receive much-needed financial support. The lack of a strong private sector in the region makes it harder for families to meet their daily needs, and increasing the PMT score would help more people access the support they require.

  • Lack of internet access affects payments.
  • Tribal areas face extra difficulties.
  • Financial struggles in Gilgit Baltistan are common.

Shortage of BISP Staff in the Region

Another issue highlighted was the shortage of BISP staff in Gilgit Baltistan. Because of this, many families face delays in registering for the program and receiving their payments. The Chief Minister has requested the BISP team to address this issue by hiring more staff to handle the workload. This would ensure that all eligible families can register and receive their payments on time.

BISP’s Efforts Despite Challenges

Despite the challenges faced in Gilgit Baltistan, the BISP program has continued to provide assistance to the most vulnerable families. The program is dedicated to helping families meet their basic needs, and the team has been working hard to overcome technical and logistical problems. Chairperson Rubina Khalid praised the efforts of the BISP staff and their commitment to supporting the people of Gilgit Baltistan.
