If you’re a BISP beneficiary and someone has unfairly deducted money from your payment, you’re not alone. Thousands of poor families across Pakistan face this issue every month. The good news is — you don’t have to stay silent. In this guide, I’ll explain how to file a complaint for deducted BISP payments, step-by-step, in a simple and easy-to-understand way.
What Is BISP and Why Is It Important?
The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) is a government program that gives financial help to poor and deserving families across Pakistan. Every 3 months, eligible people receive cash (usually Rs. 9,000 to Rs. 14,500, depending on the scheme).
But many times, agents or payment centers deduct money illegally, leaving poor families with less than they deserve.

Why Are Deductions Happening?
You might wonder: “Why was my payment cut?”
Here are some common reasons:
- Agents asking for a “commission”
- Staff at cash centers taking unfair cuts
- Fake deductions in the name of service charges
- Unethical behavior by retailers or franchise holders
If you were supposed to receive Rs. 14,500, but got only Rs. 12,000, someone took your right. Let’s fix that.
