BISP 8171 Update 2026 – 820,000 Women Removed from BISP 817 Program
The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has announced a major update for 2026, confirming that 820,000 women have been removed from the BISP 8171 program. The decision follows a thorough review of the National Socio-Economic Registry (NSER) database to ensure that only deserving families continue to receive financial support.
According to official sources, the removals were carried out after verification of household income, duplication checks, and PMT (Poverty Means Test) scores. Beneficiaries who were found ineligible due to updated data, duplicate registrations, or income exceeding the government threshold were affected by this adjustment.
