Iske liye umar 18 se 40 saal, kam az kam Matric, aur BISP Dynamic Registry mein registration lazmi hai — harkhandan se sirf ek shakhs apply kar sakta hai. September 2026 tak 49,000 se zyada afrad register ho chuke hain (APP).
What Is the Benazir Hunarmand Programme
BISP — Benazir Income Support Programme ke tehat yeh programme Chairperson Senator Rubina Khalid ki nigrani mein chalta hai. BISP ab tak bunyadi tor par cash support deta tha; Hunarmand uska pehla skills programme hai jo khandano ko training aur certificate ke zariye apne rozgar ki taraf le jata hai. Pilot ka launch Benazir Bhutto ki salgirah, 21 June 2025, ko Aiwan-e-Sadr mein hua, jahan First Lady Aseefa Bhutto Zardari bhi mojood theen.
Training mukhtalif partners ke zariye di jati hai: NAVTTC (MoU June 2025) certification aur internships mein madad karta hai; Sindh mein BBSHRRDB (MoU September 2025, pehla target 3,000 trainees); Punjab mein PSDF (MoU July 2026) — PSDF track mein training, materials aur stipends PSDF cover karta hai; PPAF aur Lok Virsa artisan (dastkari) track ke liye shamil hain.
What Training Do You Get
Official tor par bayan ki gayi sectors yeh hain (APP, September 2026): healthcare — launch par nursing ko khaas tarjeeh di gayi thi — IT, hospitality, construction, beauty services, aur garments/textiles. Iske ilawa ek informal artisan track bhi hai jismein traditional crafts aur digital marketing sikhayi jati hai.
Yeh six-month programmes hain (APP). Certificates nationally aur internationally recognised hain; PSDF graduates ko NAVTTC-recognised co-branded certificates milte hain. BISP ki apni release ke mutabiq programme mein financial literacy aur interest-free loans tak rasai bhi design ka hissa hai, aur NAVTTC ke zariye internships aur apprenticeships ka rasta bhi rakha gaya hai.
Stipend ki ek zaroori wazahat: kisi bhi official source ne Hunarmand ke liye monthly stipend ki koi raqam publish nahi ki. PSDF track mein stipends cover hone ki baat The News mein hai, lekin raqam wahan bhi nahi di gayi. Websites par Rs. 5,000 se 15,000 tak ki mukhtalif raqmein chalti hain — woh sab ghair-tasdeeq-shuda hain, is liye yahan koi raqam nahi likhi ja rahi. Aur ek confusion door kar lein: Sindh ke BBSHRRDB ki Rs. 2,500 wali stipend uske apne doosre scheme ki hai, Hunarmand ki nahi.
Eligibility — Kaun Apply Kar Sakta Hai
- Applicant BISP Dynamic Registry mein registered ho — portal ki shart registry registration hai; Kafaalat beneficiary hona official guide mein shart nahi hai.
- Umar 18 se 40 saal ke darmiyan ho.
- Kam az kam Matric (10th grade) pass ho.
- Har khandan se sirf EK shakhs apply kar sakta hai.
- Candidate beneficiary khud, uska bacha, ya uska shohar ho sakta hai — yeh sirf khawateen ke liye nahi hai. Design target 50% khawateen hai, aur ab tak ke applicants mein takreeban 75% khawateen hain (APP).
- Kisi district ya province ki pabandi official guide mein bayan nahi hai.
Ek wazahat: kuch websites PMT score cut-off ya “Kafaalat lazmi” jaisi shartein batati hain — portal ke official guide mein woh nahi hain. Official shartein sirf upar wali hain.
How to Apply
Method 1 — Online Portal
- hunarmand.bisp.gov.pk kholein aur Register Now par click karein.
- Beneficiary Verification page par Beneficiary ka CNIC darj karein, candidate select karein (Self / Child / Husband), captcha bharein aur Verify karein.
- Registration mukammal karein — yaad rahe, registration admission nahi hai: applications review hoti hain aur sirf eligible afrad select hote hain.
Method 2 — BISP Tehsil Office
- Apne qareebi BISP Tehsil Office jayein.
- Asal valid CNIC aur active mobile number saath le jayein — official tor par sirf yehi do cheezein darkaar batai gayi hain.
In practice, sab se aam rukawat Dynamic Registry ka record purana hona hai. Agar aapke khandan ka survey record update nahi hai to pehle tehsil office se apna record durust karwayein, kyunke portal ki verification usi registry se hoti hai.
Results Explained — Registration Ke Baad Kya Hota Hai
Registration ke baad applications ki review hoti hai, aur selected candidates ko unke sector aur institute ke mutabiq training mein rakha jata hai. Adaad ka record yeh hai: August 2025 tak takreeban 10,000 registrations (BISP); June 2026 ki briefing mein 7,000 se zyada enrolled; aur September 2026 mein APP ke mutabiq kul 49,000 se zyada registrations, jin mein se 5,000 se zyada sirf Sindh mein BBSHRRDB ke zariye training le rahe hain.
Ek aur figure par wazahat zaroori hai: National Assembly mein ek wazir ke bayan mein “takreeban 40,000 naujawan is waqt training le rahe hain” kaha gaya tha (PID) — yeh figure APP ki tafseeli September 2026 report se match nahi karti, is liye is page par APP aur President House ki figures istemal ki gayi hain. Programme ka kul national target official tor par announce nahi hua, aur graduates ki kul tadaad bhi publish nahi hai.
Agar selection na ho to aapka record portal par rehta hai; apne tehsil office se apni application ka status confirm rakhein taake aane wale batches ki maloomat milti rahe.
How Hunarmand Differs from Other BISP Programmes
| Programme | Kya milta hai |
|---|---|
| Kafaalat | Har 3 mah baad Rs. 14,500 cash (khandan ki khatoon ko) |
| Nashonuma | Hamla aur breastfeeding khawateen, aur 2 saal se kam bachon ke liye nutrition support |
| Taleemi Wazaif | School se higher secondary tak bachon ke stipends, 70% hazri ki shart par |
| Hunarmand | 18–40 saal ke afrad ke liye free skills training aur certificate |
Nashonuma aur Taleemi Wazaif ki tafseel unke apne pages par hai. NAVTTC ka apna PM Youth Skill Development Programme is se alag hai — woh aam naujawanon ke liye khula hai; Hunarmand mein entry sirf BISP Dynamic Registry se hoti hai, aur NAVTTC yahan sirf partner aur certifier hai.
Problems and Solutions
Is programme ki koi alag helpline nahi hai. BISP ki official helpline 0800-26477 hai — portal aur tehsil office hi Hunarmand ke channels hain. WhatsApp numbers par registration ya stipend ka dawa karne wale fraud hain; kisi ko bhi fee na dein.
Registration ho gayi lekin admission nahi mila: portal registration sirf pehla step hai, selection review ke baad hoti hai. Apni eligibility — registry record, umar, Matric — dobara check karein, aur tehsil office se apne case ki wajah confirm karein.
