The Punjab Police has implemented significant modifications to its welfare, scholarship, and medical aid benefits. A key change is the fixed marriage gift amount for a daughter, which has been set at Rs 250,000. This amount rises to Rs 500,000 for a daughter of a police employee who dies in the line of duty, and an additional Rs 750,000 for the daughter of a police employee who has made the ultimate sacrifice.
It's important to note that all claims related to these benefits must be submitted within a two-year window following the event.
On the academic front, the police department has introduced new scholarship amounts. A one-time grant of Rs 20,000 is now available for Class IV employees. FA and FSc students can receive Rs 50,000 annually, while graduate students are entitled to Rs 60,000 annually. For those requiring special education support, monthly assistance of Rs 75,000 or annual aid will be provided. Additionally, medical aid of up to Rs 1.5 million is available.
In terms of health benefits, serving employees can receive up to Rs 1 million for cancer treatment, while their spouses and children can get Rs 500,000. For minor surgeries, employees are given Rs 150,000, with their spouses and children receiving Rs 100,000. Again, medical claims must be lodged within two years of treatment.
