Socio-economic survey launched

The Punjab government has launched a socio-economic survey in Sargodha, aimed at expanding access to public welfare services for citizens.

This was announced by Socio-Economic Survey District In-charge Malik Shahbaz Karamat Khokhar on Tuesday.

According to a spokesperson, the survey seeks to register every household in the district. The data collected will serve as the foundation for providing various free government services and support initiatives.

Malik Shahbaz explained that through this initiative, eligible families will receive financial assistance.

Every citizen will be issued a health card to ensure access to healthcare services. Students will benefit from scholarship and laptop schemes, while orphan children and widows will receive support packages.

He added that youth will be provided employment opportunities and loan programmes, needy individuals will gain access to a free ration scheme and senior citizens will be entitled to dedicated healthcare services following the completion of the survey.

He appealed to all citizens to cooperate with the survey teams by providing information from their CNICs and their children's B-Forms, stressing that accurate data is crucial for complete registration. He emphasised that the survey is for the benefit of the public.
