Nadra creating ‘identity crisis’ - LRE - 03-04-2009 09:12 PM
GUJRANWALA, March 3: The National Database Registration Authority (Nadra) has failed to deliver computerised national identity cards (CNICs) to the seekers in the stipulated time despite charging urgent fees from them, Dawn has learnt.
Only one Nadra office has been established in the city to cater to the need for two-and-a-half million people. About 1,000 people visit the office to deposit their forms and due to great rush, 50 per cent of them have to return without depositing their documents.
There are four Nadra offices and as many mobile services in Faisalabad, three offices in Sialkot and five in Gujrat but Gujranwala, which is the headquarter of the division, has been given only one office and one mobile service.
Several visitors told Dawn they even though they had deposited their forms for CNICs with urgent fee but the officials had not delivered the document even after the passage of two months. The documents, however, should have been prepared and delivered to the subscribers in a fortnight.
A Nadra official put the blame for delay on the Islamabad office and said the documents were prepared in Islamabad.
