ISLAMABAD: The Finance Ministry has announced significant revisions to the Special Family Pension rules, with a focus on ensuring accurate and transparent disbursement across all government departments.

To ensure effective implementation, a comprehensive office memorandum has been issued to guide all relevant departments in properly executing these updates and ensuring that eligible families receive the support they are entitled to.
