Education Desk:
The Government of Punjab has officially announced the launch of the Punjab Student Card — a major initiative aimed at providing wide-ranging benefits to students enrolled in public and private educational institutions across the province. This innovative program is being developed by the Punjab Education Department to enhance student welfare, academic opportunities, and career support through a centralized digital system.
With the new Punjab Student Card, students will receive exclusive discounts at various outlets, free public transport access, and eligibility for both local and international scholarships. Additionally, each student’s academic and co-curricular profile will be digitally maintained, supporting their career development and future job prospects.
One of the key objectives of this student card system is to create a comprehensive digital student database in Punjab, allowing the government to better plan and implement youth-centric programs. By integrating education, mobility, and financial support, this move aligns with the vision of a Digital Pakistan and strengthens the province’s commitment to education accessibility and student empowerment.
The initiative is expected to roll out in phases, eventually covering millions of students across Punjab, revolutionizing the way student benefits are delivered in the region.
