Addressing a press conference in Islamabad, alongside Minister for National Food Security Rana Tanveer Hussain and Minister for Information Technology Shaza Fatima, Iqbal emphasized that for the first time under the Ramadan Relief Package, deserving individuals were integrated into the digital economy.

He noted that as part of the initiative, each eligible family was provided with Rs5,000.
