The Punjab government has officially launched the PSER (Punjab Social and Economic Registry) door-to-door survey to identify and register deserving individuals for government assistance programs. The survey aims to collect accurate data on low-income families to ensure they benefit from initiatives such as the Ramadan Relief Package.
During her oath-taking ceremony, Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz highlighted the lack of authentic data for distributing relief programs. She assured that within a short time, data on all eligible people in Punjab would be gathered.
