The BISP 8171 Expansion July 2025 has become a lifeline for thousands of low-income families across Pakistan. With this latest expansion, the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has included several new districts and launched secure BISP smart cards for quarterly payments of Rs. 13,500. This initiative is not just a financial step, it’s a big relief for families struggling with rising inflation, joblessness, and lack of access to banks in rural and underdeveloped areas.
This step by the government is being appreciated by many, especially those who were earlier left out of welfare programs. Now, deserving households will not only get timely payments but also better access to modern, safer banking solutions.
