The Benazir Income Support Program (BISP) is set to provide smartphones to women who receive cash transfers under the scheme.
Senator Rubina Khalid, Chairperson of BISP, had met with a JazzCash delegation at the BISP Headquarters in Islamabad to discuss making the financial assistance process more transparent and efficient through smartphone distribution.
During the meeting, the JazzCash team presented potential collaborative initiatives. Together, BISP and JazzCash will co-develop a detailed implementation plan aimed at digitally empowering beneficiaries.
Ms. Khalid emphasized that both the president and prime minister have directed her to ensure transparency in the payment transfer system and to facilitate beneficiaries.
She stressed that digital empowerment through smartphones is essential for bridging the communication gap between BISP and its recipients, ensuring they are fully informed of their rights and reducing the risk of fraud. The chairperson reaffirmed BISP’s commitment to improving the lives of its beneficiaries by offering market-driven skill training.
