Trilateral agreements signed: NADRA to implement digital tools in healthcare facilities across ICT, GB

ISLAMABAD: The National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) on Friday signed trilateral agreements to implement digital birth and death notification tools in healthcare facilities across Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT) and Gilgit-Baltistan (GB).

According to an official statement issue by the authority, digital tools will enable real-time registration of births and deaths at the point of occurrence.

An agreement was signed at the GB Secretariat in Gilgit, linking GB’s health facilities with NADRA and local CRMS sites managed by the Local Government and Rural Development Department.

Another agreement was signed with the Ministry of National Health Services and the ICT Administration for Islamabad.

Similar partnerships have been established in Sindh and Balochistan, as NADRA continues to expand the initiative nationwide.

This initiative supports the modernisation of Pakistan’s Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) system under the National Registration and Biometric Policy Framework and aligns with the government’s “Uraan Pakistan” digital agenda, it says.
