The Government of Pakistan has officially launched new BISP Camp Arrangements across all provinces to ensure a transparent, easy, and dignified payment process for millions of beneficiaries under the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP).
Whether you’re a long-time recipient of the Benazir Kafalat Program or newly registered through the 8171 Ehsaas Portal, these government-supervised camps are now the only authorized centers to collect your Rs. 13,500 or Rs. 16,500 installment safely and without deductions.
What Are BISP Camp Arrangements?
The BISP Camp Arrangements 2025 are temporary yet organized distribution centers set up by the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) in coordination with NADRA and local tehsil administrations.
They’re designed to replace unregulated payments through local agents or retailers, ensuring that eligible women, low-income families, and senior citizens receive their financial aid directly under the BISP new installment system, after proper bio metric verification.
These camps are part of Pakistan’s broader social protection and poverty reduction strategy, linked with the Ehsaas Program and NSER dynamic survey updates.
Purpose of the New Camp System
In the past, many BISP beneficiaries faced problems such as:
- Long waiting lines at ATMs
- Biometric verification failures
- Fake agents demanding deductions
- Delays in BISP 8171 payments
To fix this, the government introduced structured BISP Camp Arrangements, monitored directly by BISP officials.
Objectives include:
- Transparent cash delivery under the BISP 8171 payment system
- Comfortable facilities (shade, water, restrooms, seating)
- Separate zones for women and persons with disabilities
- Direct oversight by BISP and NADRA to eliminate fraud
These camps make sure every eligible family receives their quarterly installment securely.
