ISLAMABAD: Senator Rubina Khalid, Chairperson of the Benazir Income Support Program (BISP), has called on all political parties to ensure that the program remains free from political affiliations.

Speaking at a press conference at the BISP headquarters, she emphasized the importance of maintaining the program’s integrity for the benefit of the country’s most vulnerable populations.

During her address, Senator Khalid highlighted the critical role of BISP in providing financial assistance to low-income families across Pakistan.

She stated, “The Benazir Income Support Program is a lifeline for millions of citizens, and it is imperative that we protect it from political manipulation. This program should be a symbol of unity, not division.”

Her remarks come amid ongoing political tensions in the country, raising concerns about the potential impact on social welfare initiatives.

The senator’s appeal underscores the broader implications of political interference in social programs, which could jeopardize the livelihoods of those who rely on BISP for essential support.

As the nation grapples with economic challenges, the need for a stable and nonpartisan approach to welfare programs is more crucial than ever.

Looking ahead, Senator Khalid urged political leaders to engage in constructive dialogue to safeguard the future of BISP.

She announced plans for a series of meetings with stakeholders to discuss strategies for enhancing the program’s effectiveness and ensuring its sustainability in the face of political changes.
