To join the CM Punjab Ramzan Package 2026, just open your phone message box. Type your 13-digit CNIC number and send it to 8070. If you are eligible, you will get Rs. 10,000 cash or a Free Ration Bag at your doorstep. You can also check your name on the PSER Portal (pser.punjab.gov.pk).
We all know how hard it has become to manage kitchen expenses these days. With Ramzan coming up, the worry of buying flour, sugar, and ghee increases for every head of the family.
To help with this, Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz has started the Nigehban Ramzan Package 2026.
The best part? You don’t have to stand in long lines this year. The government has promised to deliver the ration right to your home, or send cash directly to your account.
Here is a simple guide on how you can check your status and get your relief package.

What is the CM Punjab Ramzan Package 2026?
This is a special relief program for the people of Punjab. The government wants to make sure no family goes hungry during the holy month.
For 2026, the system is fully digital. They are using your ID card data to see if you need help.
If you are selected, you will get one of two things:
- Free Ration Bag: Delivered to your house.
- Cash Grant: Rs. 10,000 sent via bank transfer.
What is inside the Ration Bag?
If you get the food hamper, here is what you will find inside:
- 10 kg Flour (Atta)
- 2 kg Sugar
- 2 kg Ghee or Oil
- 2 kg Rice
- 1 kg Chickpeas (Daal Chana)
This package is worth over Rs. 3500, but you will get it for free.
Who is Eligible? (Check Your Status)
Many people are confused about whether they qualify. Let’s make it simple.
You are likely eligible if:
- You live in Punjab.
- Your monthly income is less than Rs. 60,000.
- You don’t own a car.
- No one in your family has traveled abroad.

Important Note:

Method 1: Check Status via SMS (8070)
This is the fastest way to check. You don’t need the internet for this.
Step 1: Open the message app on your mobile.
Step 2: Type your CNIC Number.
(Write it like this: 3520212345678. Do not use dashes.
Step 3: Send this message to 8070.
Step 4: Wait for a reply.
- If it says “Eligible” (Mubarak ho), you will get the package.
- If it says “Verification in Process”, wait a few days and check again.
Method 2: Apply Online via PSER Portal
If the SMS says your record is not found, it means you are not registered in the Punjab database. You need to register yourself first.
Follow these easy steps:
1. Go to the Website
Search for “PSER Punjab” on Google or go to pser.punjab.gov.pk.
2. Make an Account
Click on the register button. Enter your name, CNIC, and phone number. You will get a code on your phone to confirm.
3. Enter Family Details
Add the names of your wife, husband, or kids. Enter their CNIC or B-Form numbers.
4. Answer Simple Questions
The form will ask simple things like: Do you own this house? Do you have a bike? Be honest.
5. Submit
Once you submit, the government will check your data. If you meet the criteria, you will be automatically added to the Ramzan list.
Why Was My Application Rejected?
It feels terrible to see a “Not Eligible” message. Here are the main reasons why this happens:
- SIM Card Issue: The SIM you used to message is not registered in your name. Always use a SIM that matches your CNIC.
- High Bills: Your electricity meter shows high bills (over Rs. 15,000). The system thinks you are rich.
- Updates Needed: Your NADRA record is old. For example, if you are married but your ID card still says single, the system might count you as a dependent, not a head of the family.

How Will I Receive the Package?
The government has changed the rules to give you more respect.
For Ration Bags (Village Areas):
Government teams have a list. They will come to your door. They will scan your ID card and hand over the bag. You do not have to pay them a single rupee.
For Cash (City Areas):
You will get a message from 8070 or 8171.
It will tell you to go to a specific bank branch (like Bank of Punjab) or a retailer.
You will place your thumb on the machine and get your Rs. 10,000.
Where to Complain?
If you are poor but still didn’t get the package, or if someone asks you for a bribe, you should report it.
- Helpline: Call 0800-02345.
- SMS Complaint: Type your problem and send it to 8070.
