Due to the technical issue in the system of passport offices, thousands of citizens faced problems across the country, including Karachi.

According to sources, there was a fault in the system connected with NADRA offices, because of which work stopped for 2 hours nationwide.

However, due to a technical issue, the applicant’s data could not be uploaded on time. The citizens who came for passports had to wait for a long time after photo and biometrics.
