Citizens have been warned against sharing their personal information or fingerprints in exchange for financial offers or rewards. Additionally, NADRA advised the public to avoid carrying unnecessary photocopies and only bring original documents for processing.
Clear instructions regarding these guidelines have been displayed at all NADRA centres.
