Residents of Islamabad are facing difficulties obtaining birth and death certificates due to the suspension of services by the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA).

The suspension is a result of the Islamabad Municipal Corporation (MCI) failing to pay NADRA a debt of Rs2 million.

Sources indicate that the MCI’s inability to settle its dues has led to the suspension of services, leaving citizens struggling to obtain essential documents for over a week.

NADRA has confirmed that the service suspension is due to the MCI’s outstanding debt.

The suspension of birth and death certificate services has caused significant inconvenience to residents, who are now facing delays and complications in various official processes.

The MCI has yet to issue a statement regarding the situation or provide a timeline for resolving the issue.
