Punjab Dhee Rani Programme 2026
Last updated: 14 October 2026
Punjab Dhee Rani Programme Punjab government ka woh program hai jismein mustahiq larkiyon ki ijtemai shadiyan (mass weddings) government apne kharche par karwati hai, aur dulhan ko ATM card ke zariye Rs. 200,000 salami bhi di jati hai. Yeh program Social Welfare & Bait-ul-Maal Department chalata hai, aur iski official helpline 1312 hai. Naye phase ka target is financial year mein 5,000 shadiyan hai, aur divisional shadiyan October 2026 se shuru ho rahi hain — is phase ki applications Maryam Ko Batain app ke zariye receive ho chuki hain aur unki scrutiny chal rahi hai. Dulhan ki umar 18 se 40 saal ke darmiyan honi chahiye, aur woh yateem, mustahiq ya mazoor ho — ya mazoor shakhs ki beti ho.
What Is the Punjab Dhee Rani Programme
Punjab Government Schemes ke tehat Dhee Rani (Collective Marriages Programme) CM Maryam Nawaz Sharif ki manzoori se shuru hua. Applications pehli dafa 21 October 2024 ko khuleen, aur CM ne program ka baqaida iftitah 11 January 2025 ko Lahore mein kiya — jo websites January 2025 ko iski launch kehti hain, woh isi iftitahi taqreeb ki date batati hain. Implementing department Social Welfare & Bait-ul-Maal Punjab hai, jiske wazir Sohail Shaukat Butt hain.
Programme ke official dashboard ke mutabiq October 2025 se February 2026 tak 34 events mein 4,962 shadiyan ho chuki hain, jin ke liye 23,789 applications aayi theen, aur 30 se zyada districts cover hue. Official dawa 2024-25 mein 3,000 aur 2025-26 mein 5,000 shadiyon — kul 8,000 — ka hai; dashboard ka adaad is rounded daway se thora kam hai, is liye dono figures yahan di gayi hain.
What the Bride Receives
Maujooda official figure (Punjab Portal aur programme portal) yeh hai: dulhan ko Rs. 200,000 salami ATM card ke zariye milti hai, aur shadi ki taqreeb government arrange karti hai, jismein kul 20 mehman shamil ho sakte hain aur khana government ki taraf se hota hai.
Phase 1 mein salami Rs. 100,000 thi, aur iske saath takreeban Rs. 206,000 ki dowry items di gayi theen — Holy Quran, prayer mat, wooden double bed aur mattress, mirror, dinner set waghera. Ek aur reporting (programme ke portal material ki base par, September 2026) mein Rs. 200,000 ke saath Rs. 121,000 ki mazeed gift ka zikr hai, jabke February 2026 ki department reports Rs. 200,000 ko kul raqam kehti hain. Is liye tasdeeq-shuda figure Rs. 200,000 hai — Rs. 121,000 wali raqam abhi mutanazia (disputed) hai, aur dono ko jod kar Rs. 321,000 kehna durust nahi hoga.

Results Explained — Selection Ke Baad
Selection ho jaye to Bank of Punjab ka account aur ATM card tayyar hota hai, salami usi card se milti hai, aur bataye gaye venue aur date par ijtemai shadi ki taqreeb hoti hai, jismein NADRA certification bhi wahi mukammal hoti hai.

The October 2026 Phase — Current Status
Naye phase ka target is financial year ke liye 5,000 shadiyan hai, aur divisional level ki shadiyan October 2026 se shuru ho rahi hain — yeh plan Social Welfare Minister Sohail Shaukat Butt ki sadarat mein hui review meeting mein discuss hua (DGPR reporting, 3 September 2026). Is phase ki applications Maryam Ko Batain app ke zariye receive ho chuki hain, aur unki scrutiny aur verification chal rahi hai. Is phase ke liye koi alag application window ya deadline official tor par publish nahi hui, aur programme ke portal par September 2026 ke aakhir mein “Registration Closed” nazar aaya tha. Is liye is waqt nayi application ka koi tasdeeq-shuda tareeqa mojood nahi hai.

Problems and Solutions
Helpline ki confusion door kar lein: is programme ki official helpline 1312 hai (Punjab Portal). Maryam Ko Batain ki 1000 wali line ko Dhee Rani ki helpline kehna durust nahi — official reporting mein Dhee Rani ke liye Maryam Ko Batain APP ka zikr aaya hai, 1000 number ka nahi. Sawal ke liye 1312 par call karein.
Agent ya fee ka fraud: is programme ki application bilkul free hai, aur sirf portal ya district Social Welfare office se hoti hai. Selection ka dawa karke paisay mangne wala har shakhs fraud hai — 1312 par report karein.
Dulha ki verification ki tayyari: aksar families ko maloom nahi hota ke Tehsil Verification Committee dulha ke ghar ki bhi visit karti hai. Dulha ke documents (CNIC waghera) pehle se ready rakhein, warna file is marhalay par ruk jati hai.
