Turbat: The National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) Office in Turbat has failed to facilitate students in obtaining NADRA Child Registration Certificates (CRC).
NADRA Office in Turbat is the only government office where people and students visit this office to get their NADRA Child Registration Certificates (CRC) also known as B-Form.
NADRA Child Registration Certificates (CRC) is used for the individuals aged below the 18 years. Having B-Form has become very important for children for different purposes, the chief one is for getting admission at any school or appearing in examination.
The examination forms of students cannot be submitted until a copy of B-Form is attached; no submission of B-form by students can create difficulties to appear in High school examinations
“NADRA office is often crowded but there are not adequate arrangements to canter the needs of people. Students are facing multiple problems for making their Child Registration Certificates (CRC)” said one of the applicants.
Obtaining an urgent B-Form takes more than ten days, it has been experienced that students many times fail to submit the required form till the fixed date.
One of the applicants for B- form said: “I faced lots of problems when I was trying to submit my B-form for applying an international scholarship, even requested to the concerned officer to issue me immediately, but I could not get that on time and failed to miss the opportunity”
He added that majority of the students faced such kinds of problems in Turbat city.
Father of a student looking for B-form said, “NADRA has to facilitate the students in acquiring Child Registration Certificates (CRC), so that they may not miss any opportunity and be able to appear in their examinations on the set date.”
