Chilas: Senator Rubina Khalid, Chairperson of the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP), announced new measures to transfer funds directly to the bank accounts of deserving women, as directed by President Asif Ali Zardari.

These include the Benazir Kafaalat, Taleemi Wazaif, and Nashonuma programs, along with the newly launched Benazir Skill Training Program, which is intended to improve life quality and economic contributions of the women and their families.
