The 109 students in Jhelum received Honhaar scholarships worth approximately Rs 2.5 million. The scholarships cover disciplines including social sciences, behavioural sciences, information technology, computer science, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, engineering, emerging technologies and allied health sciences. The awards covered students from universities, colleges and a nursing college.

The Chief Minister has increased the number of laptops allocated for deserving students from 40,000 to 112,000, and 48,292 laptops have already been distributed among students across various districts of Punjab. Under the first three phases of the Honhaar Scholarship Programme, scholarships have been awarded to 108,000 students. A week earlier, on 3 November 2026, the Chief Minister distributed 6,161 laptops and 2,590 Honhaar scholarships worth Rs 196.97 million among Rawalpindi division students at a ceremony at COMSATS University, Attock — including beneficiaries from Swabi, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

The programme covers students enrolled in public and private universities, federally chartered universities, BS colleges, special education institutions and medical and dental colleges. Students should follow announcements from their universities and the relevant education authorities for information about selection and collection arrangements.

Step-by-Step: How Students Get Selected

  1. Universities and colleges share merit lists of eligible students with the Higher Education Department.
  2. Selected students are informed by their own institution — there is no public application form to fill for the distribution ceremonies.
  3. Bring your original CNIC and student card to the distribution ceremony when your institution calls you.
  4. Collect your laptop and, if selected, your Honhaar scholarship cheque at the ceremony.
  5. If your name is not on your institution’s list, ask your university or college administration — the lists are prepared institution-wise.

Eligibility Reminder

The laptop scheme and Honhaar scholarships are merit- and need-based for students of public and private universities, federally chartered universities, BS colleges, special education institutions and medical and dental colleges in Punjab. Selection is made through the institutions — no agent can add your name to a list, and no one should pay any fee for a laptop or scholarship.
