The National Assembly (NA) was informed on Thursday said no case has been reported about the issuance of a fake passport to any non-Pakistani citizen.

Answering a question during Question-Hour, Minister for Information and Broadcasting Attaullah Tarar said a passport is issued after proper verification process.

He said the verification mechanism involves a compatibility with the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) data such as Family Registration Certificate to check any loophole.

The House also adopted a motion to discuss the judicial reforms. It was moved by Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Leader Syed Naveed Qamar. Leader of the Opposition Omar Ayub Khan commenced the discussion on the motion.
