PSER

Punjab Government has launched Punjab Socio-Economic Registration PSER for registration of poor people in various government and relief programs. In PSER, the data of all the people across Punjab will be collected and as much information as possible about them will be collected so that whenever the government launches a program, the people will be targeted using the PSER data.
