NADRA’s slow speed

Letter August 25, 2016
It is my humble request to NADRA to facilitate students in acquiring their B-forms

TURBAT: There is only one office of the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) in Turbat from where people get their B-forms and CNICs made. This place is often crowded. Students requiring urgent B-forms need to apply well in advance as the entire process can take over 10 days.

I faced this problem when I was trying to acquire my B-form while applying for a scholarship. I requested an officer for an urgent B-form 13 days in advance. However, my attempts went in vain as I didn’t get the form in time and missed the opportunity to apply for the scholarship. It is my humble request to NADRA to facilitate students in acquiring their B-forms so that they do not miss important opportunities.
