As per an official notification, nearly 200,000 people daily visit NADRA centers across the country for identity card related services.

It is pertinent to mention here that the national identity card is a pre-requisite for administering vaccine to the public.

The decision not to provide facilities has been taken at the behest of the district administration.

In this regard, Deputy Commissioners of different districts have written letters to NADRA.
