The Zewar e Taleem Programme was established with the goal of supporting youngsters who, for various reasons, are unable to continue their education beyond the basic level. The government has developed this project, which offers conditional monetary help to female students in 16 districts with low literacy rates.
The primary purpose of this program is to encourage young females to continue their education by addressing their nutritional and health requirements, as well as boosting their school attendance. The PSPA preparer's designated branches are in responsible of sending funds to qualifying beneficiaries.
Punjab Social Protection Authority (Government of Punjab)
Over 730,085 people are now getting cash financial assistance from the Punjab Social Protection Authority (PSPA) through three separate conditional and unconditional programs. These programs include the Bricklin Programme and the Universal Cash Transfer (UCT) for persons with learning disabilities. The PWDS initiative is also assisting 67,069 people with disabilities.
The Ehsaas projects in Punjab seek to provide financial assistance to the weak and needy in accordance with the Prime Minister's plan, allowing them to acquire a respectable position in society. The Punjab government established the Punjab Social Protection Authority initiative to implement federal government programs. Its primary goal is to give economic and social stability to the country's poorest and most deserving citizens.
Scholarship amount
Pakistan's government has launched a project to provide monthly stipends to females enrolled in public schools in 16 districts, including Bahawalnagar, Bahawalpur, Bakhar, Chiniot, DG Khan, Jhang, Kasur, Khanewal, Leh, Lodhran, Muzaffargarh, Okara, Pakpattan, Rajanpur, Rahim Yar Khan, and Wahari. Students who qualify for this course will get stipends of up to Rs. 1000 per month.
The requirement to maintain at least 80% attendance prevents stipends from being given out more frequently than once every three months. Furthermore, following successful biometric verification, new students enrolled in these schools will be eligible for the stipend. The project aims to give financial aid to female students while also encouraging continuous school attendance.
This project has a total of 700,000 beneficiaries.
Zewar e Taleem Program
The Zewar-e-Taleem Program aims to increase literacy rates in Pakistan because the majority of Pakistani households do not place a high importance on educating their daughters. As a result, stipends are given to the girls to encourage them to continue their study.

- There should be 80% attendance.
