Chairperson Benazir Income Support Programme, Senator Rubina Khalid says BISP has set a target to create employment opportunities for the youth by imparting them skill-based training.

Addressing a news conference in Islamabad, she said BISP would soon launch a new initiative 'Benazir Hunarmand Programme' to impart skill-based training to the youth for their employability.

The Chairperson said BISP is an internationally acclaimed and largest poverty alleviation program.

Dispelling the perception that BISP creates dependency, Rubina Khalid said that BISP provides financial assistance to bridge the gap between the expenses and income of low-income households.
