Maryam Ki Dastak: Punjab's New Initiative for Doorstep Government Services

The 'Maryam Ki Dastak' initiative, launched by Punjab’s Finance Secretary, Mujahid Sherdil, is set to revolutionize public service delivery by bringing essential government services directly to citizens' doorsteps. As reported on May 17, this initiative ensures that facilitators will assist citizens with completing forms, processing payments, and ensuring prompt delivery of documents.

Interested individuals can register through the 'Dastak Facilitator Mobile App' and must meet specific criteria to participate. According to Faisal Yousaf, Chairman of the Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB), facilitators will undergo rigorous training, with only those scoring 70% or above being eligible.

Citizens can book services via the mobile app, web portal, or helpline. The services are expected to launch in Lahore within three to four weeks, with plans to expand to all districts of Punjab subsequently. Maryam Ki Dastak aims to make public service delivery accessible, efficient, and convenient for everyone.
