Ehsaas Masawaat Program 2026

If you are looking for support through the Ehsaas Masawaat Program, you should know that this scheme is designed for the welfare of transgender persons in Punjab. The program provides monthly financial assistance and also helps beneficiaries connect with guidance and support through official channels.

According to public reporting, eligible transgender persons above 40 years can receive Rs. 3,000 per month, and transgender persons aged 18 to 40 with special needs can receive Rs. 2,000 per month.

The most important step is making sure your CNIC details are correct and you are registered with NADRA under the transgender category, because NADRA verification is part of the process.

What is the Ehsaas Masawaat Program?

The Masawaat Program is a monthly financial assistance initiative launched for the transgender community in Punjab through the Punjab Social Protection Authority (PSPA). It focuses on social protection and inclusion by supporting basic needs through regular cash support.

Along with cash assistance, the program also links eligible beneficiaries to support and guidance, including help related to registration and in some cases employment facilitation.

Payment Amount in Masawaat Program

Based on publicly available reporting, the monthly assistance is structured like this:

• Rs. 3,000 per month for transgender persons above 40 years
• Rs. 2,000 per month for transgender persons aged 18 to 40 who have special needs

The registration guidance also mentions NADRA transgender CNIC and disability proof for special needs cases.
