9999 PM Ramzan Relief Program 2026

The Pakistani government has launched the PM Ramzan 5000 Relief Package 9999 to support low-income families during the holy month of Ramadan. This initiative provides cash assistance along with essential Rashan items to help households manage rising prices of food and utilities. With inflation rates around 9–11%, many families struggle to meet daily expenses, and this program offers timely relief to the most deserving.

The 2026 program is part of a larger social welfare drive, funded with PKR 20 billion, aiming to assist nearly 4 million families nationwide. The government emphasizes transparency, ease of access, and equitable distribution through digital technology and SMS-based registration.
