Abstract
This paper has reviewed the attainments and precincts of
social protection programs in Pakistan since their inception and
pondered on some of the major challenges that these programs are
facing or expected to face in immediate future. The paper also
deliberated on the major design and implementation flaws of existing
social protection schemes which limit their outreach and do not let the
benefits of these programs trickle down to the targeted beneficiaries. It
concluded that the social protection programs and schemes in Pakistan
are unable to produce anticipated impact on poverty alleviation due to
inbuilt structural design blemishes and unequivocal problems in their
implementation.
