‘Maryam Ke Dastak’ expanded to Punjab’s 32 districts

Author: APP

On the directive of Punjab Chief Minister (CM) Maryam Nawaz Sharif, the ‘Maryam Ke Dastak’ program has been expanded to 32 districts across the province.

The ten new districts added include Rahim Yar Khan, Vehari, Lodhran, Toba Tek Singh, Layyah, Rajanpur, Nankana Sahib, Chiniot, Gujrat, and Khushab.

This emerged during a progress review meeting presided over by PITB Chairman Faisal Yousaf, here on Monday.

“Maryam Ke Dastak” offers over 65 government services such as Domicile Certificates, FIR copies, Birth Certificates, Learner’s Driving Licenses, and e-Stamping through the PITB-developed ‘Dastak Doorstep Delivery App’ and web portal. Citizens can now avail these services directly at their doorsteps, reducing the need to visit government offices ensuring greater convenience, especially for women, the elderly, and working professionals.

Previously, Dastak services were available in major districts, including Lahore, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, and Sargodha. Citizens can also avail these services by calling the helpline at 1202.

On this occasion, Chairman Faisal Yousaf remarked, “The Maryam Ke Dastak initiative aims to improve service delivery through trained representatives, providing a more efficient and citizen-friendly experience.” The program underscores the government’s commitment to accessible, transparent, and technology-driven public service delivery, he added.
