SAPM on Social Welfare Dr Sania Nishtar has announced that the government is launching an online rations portal where people who want ration can submit a request.

She said this was being done to streamline the distribution of ration after it was observed that in some areas, a number of people received a lot of ration while others did not receive at all.

She requested volunteers to help people fill the application form on https://rashan.pass.gov.pk/, saying the government will carry out wealth profiling and remove duplications.
