Benazir Kafalat Payment Is Going To Increase
News like this is being seen on many social media platforms that the amount of the Benazir Kafalat program is going to increase. Finally I will tell you in this article in full detail whether the increase is really going to happen or not. In this regard, let me tell you that in the ongoing negotiations between the government of Pakistan and the IMF, an agreement has been reached to increase the budget of the Benazir Income Support Program. After which, the budget of the Benazir Income Support Program will increase from 470 billion rupees to 350 billion rupees in the next financial year.
This is the reason that the news of an increase in the amount of the Benazir Kafalat program is circulating on various social media platforms. But now it will be premature to say anything in this regard, but it is hoped that the amount may increase after the budget for the 2024 fiscal year to be presented by the government. So those who wanted to know whether the Benazir Income Support Program has really increased financial assistance or not have the answers to their questions.

If there is an increase, how much will it be?
If it is estimated how much the money from the Kafalat program can be increased by the government of Pakistan after the budget of the next financial year, then I would like to tell you a few things in this regard. Let me tell you that recently last year, the Kafalat program was increased from 8500 rupees to 10,500 rupees by the government of Pakistan. Keeping the same thing in mind, it can be hoped that the financial assistance of about Rs 2,000 can be increased in the upcoming increase. But it is too early to say whether there will be an increase or not because the government has reached an agreement with the IMF to increase the budget of the Benazir Income Support Program only. But now it has to be seen whether the government increases the financial assistance of the beneficiaries after the budget of the next financial year or not.

This is the best opportunity for you to complete the registration after the budget increase agreement.
