NADRA has decided to introduce a B-form with special security features for children over the age of ten.
Under the security features, introduced on the instructions of Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi, fingerprints and photographs of children over ten years will now be mandatory components of the B-form.
In his remarks on the occasion, Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi said these measures will help prevent the theft and misuse of children’s identity information.
This will also assist in preventing crimes such as the issuance of fake identity cards, illegal passports, and human trafficking.
The issuance of these special forms will begin in phases from the 15th of this month.
