Federal Minister for Interior and Narcotics Control, Syed Mohsin Raza Naqvi, appreciated this initiative for its capability to provide secure and instant verification for different services through the World Bank-backed Digital Economy Project.

Digital verification is set to kick off its pilot phase on Independence Day 2025 and will allow the public more convenient access to government services.

NADRA’s commitment to expanding identity services to remote areas and overseas Pakistanis was also emphasized, as well as its role in supporting law enforcement agencies in national security matters.
