9999, With the holy month of Ramadan 2026 fast approaching, the Government of Pakistan has officially launched the 9999 Web Portal. This digital initiative is a major step toward supporting low-income families by providing direct cash assistance—ranging from Rs. 5,000 to Rs. 13,000—as well as essential food items.
