During his visit to NADRA Headquarters, Chairman NADRA briefed the Interior Minister about NADRA operations in Sindh, Baluchistan and South Punjab which have been badly affected by devastating floods and heavy rains. The minister was informed that the monsoon rains and floods have caused heavy losses to the most of buildings of NRCs which are inundated under water; however, the equipment has been saved and evacuated. Houses of 150 NADRA employees in those areas have been damaged, the chairman informed.

Moreover, during the briefing Chairman NADRA informed the Minister that more than 37 million people have been terribly affected due to on-going floods and continuous rain pour. He told that the heavy rains and flooding situation in certain areas had led to the loss of CNICs of affected people which would be needed to have an access to governments’ relief disbursement and other relief activities.

With regard to Biker service, Mr. Malik informed that initially the pilot phase of the service would be started in Islamabad and Rawalpindi. By the end of December this year, NADRA Biker service would be extended to all the districts of the country, he added.
