Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has directed a third-party audit of the Ramadan Relief Package.
Chairing a review meeting on Prime Minister’s Ramzan Relief Package in Islamabad on Monday, he appreciated the efforts of the State Bank of Pakistan, NADRA and tech companies in ensuring transparency of the package.
The Prime Minister said the Ramadan Relief Package has been introduced across the country including Gilgit-Baltistan and Azad Jammu and Kashmir, without any discrimination.
He said payments are being made to the deserving individuals through a highly convenient and transparent digital wallet system.
The Prime Minister instructed that this model be adopted for other government schemes as well.
Shehbaz Sharif also directed that the awareness campaign being run by telecom companies and banks regarding the Ramadan Relief Package be made more effective and a comprehensive report be prepared.
The meeting was informed that about sixty three percent of the deserving families have received the amounts.
