On the other hand, NADRA has recently introduced a series of reforms aimed at improving citizen services and data accuracy. On the directives of the interior ministry, the authority has made CNIC cancellation after death free of charge, helping families avoid complications in inheritance and pension claims.
The authority has also expanded its digital ecosystem through the “Pak Identity” mobile application, which allows citizens to renew identity cards, verify biometrics, and access key services remotely. The app’s “Proof of Life” feature, launched this year, enables pensioners facing fingerprint issues to verify their status online without visiting NADRA offices.
