The meeting reviewed several measures aimed at improving welfare facilities for police employees and their families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to a Punjab Police spokesperson, the board approved a significant increase in marriage grants for the daughters of police personnel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under the new decision, the marriage gift for each daughter of a police martyr has been increased from Rs750,000 to Rs1 million. The financial assistance for the daughters of employees who died while in service has also been increased, rising from Rs500,000 to Rs750,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Similarly, the marriage gift for daughters of serving and retired police employees has been increased from Rs250,000 to Rs500,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The welfare board also approved an important education-related measure for the children of police employees in Grades 1 to 17. Under the new policy, the full fee charged by specialized private educational institutions will be provided as an educational scholarship for eligible children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The meeting was attended by relevant members of the Punjab Police Welfare Board. Deputy Inspector General Welfare and Finance Mehboob Rashid presented proposals aimed at further improving welfare facilities for police employees and their families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Board members reviewed the proposals in detail and expressed agreement on improving the proposed welfare measures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The increase in marriage assistance is intended to provide greater financial support to police families at an important stage of their children&#8217;s lives. Families of police martyrs, in particular, face significant hardships after losing a loved one in the line of duty. Increasing the marriage grant for their daughters is therefore being presented as part of the department&#8217;s broader welfare efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The highest level of assistance has been allocated to daughters of police martyrs, whose marriage gift has been increased to Rs1 million. This is followed by daughters of police employees who died during service, who will now receive Rs750,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Daughters of serving and retired police personnel will receive a marriage gift of Rs500,000 under the revised welfare policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to marriage assistance, the education initiative is expected to provide further support to police families. Children of employees in Grades 1 to 17 who attend specialized private institutions will be eligible for scholarships covering their full fees, according to the approved measure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Punjab Police Welfare Board&#8217;s decisions represent an expansion of financial and educational assistance for police employees and their families. The measures are aimed at strengthening the welfare system and providing additional support to families connected with the police force.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Police personnel often work under demanding conditions, and welfare programs can play an important role in supporting their families. The latest decisions focus particularly on education and marriage-related expenses, which can place considerable financial pressure on households.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The approval of full educational scholarships for eligible children may also help families meet the costs of specialized private education. By covering the full fees at specialized institutions, the program could reduce the financial burden on police employees and provide greater educational opportunities for their children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The revised marriage grants and educational scholarships are now part of the welfare measures approved by the Punjab Police Welfare Board. Further administrative procedures will determine the implementation of the approved benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Overall, the new policy provides increased financial assistance to daughters of police martyrs and other police employees while introducing full-fee educational support for eligible children. The Punjab Police says these measures are part of its ongoing efforts to improve the welfare and financial security of its personnel and their families.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Punjab Police has approved an increase in the financial assistance provided for the marriage of daughters of police martyrs, employees who died during service,..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":13837,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13836","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-pakistan"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/11111-2026-09-02T151156.007.png",800,927,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/11111-2026-09-02T151156.007-150x150.png",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/11111-2026-09-02T151156.007-259x300.png",259,300,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/11111-2026-09-02T151156.007-768x890.png",768,890,true],"large":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/11111-2026-09-02T151156.007.png",800,927,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/11111-2026-09-02T151156.007.png",800,927,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/11111-2026-09-02T151156.007.png",800,927,false]},"author_info":{"info":["admin"]},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/?cat=3\" rel=\"category\">Pakistan<\/a>","tag_info":"Pakistan","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13836","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=13836"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13836\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13838,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13836\/revisions\/13838"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/13837"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=13836"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=13836"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=13836"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
