The National Data and Registration Authority (Nadra) has advised the citizens to get their expired Computerised National Identity Cards (CNIC) renewed in order to avoid any inconvenience. Nadras spokesman warned that after expiry of these cards, the card holders would not be able to avail any facility that requires irrevocable proof of his/her identification.
He reminded the holder of expired CNIC that all legal transactions relating to purchase, sale, transfer of property, opening or operation of bank accounts, foreign travel and many other activities that require identification of an individual, require possession of a valid CNIC. He said that the expiry date on CNIC is specially mentioned to ensure that the data of each individual is regularly updated.
He said after announcement by Nadra to accept CNIC applications free of charge people are now turning to its offices, that have rapidly enlarged the database. He said the data available with Nadra enables the government to fine tune its development policies according to the needs of the people, therefore people need to get their CNIC renewed after its expiry.
