ISLAMABAD: The National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) said on Friday that 7 million Pakistanis above the age of 18 have not yet obtained national identity cards despite being eligible.
According to details released on Friday, this widespread surveillance has created opportunities for fraudsters, especially in cases where Afghan nationals have been illegally included in family trees through forged documents.
NADRA records showed that these individuals had valid records in the form of B forms, birth certificates or entries in union councils. However, the absence of a computerized National Identity Card (CNIC) has left their identities unverified at the national level.
Such individuals are considered vulnerable to identity fraud, as their unverified status allows for manipulation. Fraudsters can exploit these gaps to insert non-citizens, including Afghan nationals, into legitimate family trees.
