Announced on October 21, the program is now accepting applications, with special teams set to visit applicants’ homes to ensure transparency.

In a country where weddings can be financially burdensome, particularly for low-income families, this initiative seeks to alleviate some of that pressure.

Each bride participating in the program will receive approximately Rs100,000 (about $350), along with essential household items such as furniture, clothing, and dinner sets.

Applications can be submitted online at the Punjab government’s website, and a dedicated helpline has been established for assistance.
