The Punjab government started the Laptop Scheme 2025, led by Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz, to help students use computers for learning. The plan will give out 112,000 new, fast laptops, including the latest Core i7 models, to students in public schools and colleges. The distribution starts on October 31.
The scheme is for students in public universities, colleges, and medical or dental schools in Punjab. It wants to help students get better at technology and do well in their studies. The government will use a fair merit-based lottery system to give out the laptops. Before this, 14,000 laptops were given to students in Lahore.

The program helps less-privileged students get access to technology. It supports online learning, research, and joining classes from home. The scheme rewards those who do well in school and pushes students to improve. Past similar programs helped increase digital skills by 30% in colleges between 2018 and 2023.
Pakistan’s education faces big problems, with many children not in school. Floods in 2025 damaged resources even more. The laptop scheme follows world trends in digital education, and prepares students for jobs using technology. It also follows other successes, such as women topping humanities exams in 2025
