The Punjab government has announced the Free laptop scheme distribution schedule, marking the launch of the second phase of its program for students. The initiative aims to promote digital access and improve learning opportunities across the province.
According to the Higher Education Department, the distribution will begin next month. A formal schedule has already been finalized to ensure smooth implementation. Punjab Chief Minister is expected to inaugurate the scheme in a ceremony planned for the first or second week of September.
In the first phase of the program, around 14,000 laptops were given to students in Lahore. The upcoming phase is expected to cover a wider region, helping more deserving students in Punjab. The expansion reflects the government’s continued focus on higher education and digital literacy.
The scheme has been structured on a merit basis, ensuring that laptops go to students who meet the academic criteria. Officials believe this step will not only reward academic achievement but also encourage more students to excel in their studies.
Education experts note that access to laptops can play a major role in bridging the digital divide. Many students, particularly from underprivileged backgrounds, face challenges in accessing modern educational tools. The scheme provides them with opportunities for online research, assignments, and e-learning.
The distribution plan is part of broader government efforts, which also include the PM Laptop Scheme at the national level. Students have shown keen interest in updates related to the Laptop Scheme 2025 online apply and CM Punjab Laptop Scheme 2025 Online Registration, which have become popular search queries in recent weeks.
By expanding digital access, the Punjab government hopes to prepare students for future academic and professional needs. Officials believe that empowering youth with technology is a vital step toward building a skilled and competitive generation.
