The Punjab government has officially started the verification process for families applying under the Ramzan Package 2026 eligibility. As Ramadan approaches, thousands of low-income households are checking their status through the 8070 system to secure ration support or financial assistance before prices rise further.
If you’ve applied — or are planning to — here’s a clear, step-by-step guide to check your eligibility from home.
What is the 8070 Ramzan Package 2026 eligibility?
The 8070 Ramzan Package 2026 is a relief initiative launched by the Government of Punjab to support deserving families during Ramadan.
Under this scheme, eligible households may receive:
-
Free ration (flour, sugar, ghee, pulses)
OR -
One-time financial assistance (as per policy approval)
The assistance is distributed after verification through the Punjab Socio-Economic Registry (PSER).
