President Ghani to make historic launch of e-NIC distribution today
President Mohammad Ashraf Ghani will formally inaugurate the distribution of the electronic national identity cards and will himself receive his electronic national identity card during the ceremony.
AVA- The head of the media relations of the Presidential Palace, ARG, Hamid Sozan said a ceremony will be organized for the inauguration of the electronic national identity cards distribution Thursday morning.
The biometric process for the electronic National Identity Cards (e-NIC) for the senior government officials kicked off nearly two and half months ago amid ongoing controversies regarding the launch of the distribution of the cards.
A spokesman for the Population Registration Department Rohullah Ahmadzai said the collection of biometric information started in ARG Palace on mid-February.
He said the biometric information and other documents for the distribution of the electronic national identity cards have been collected from President Mohammad Ashraf Ghani, First Lady BiBi Gul, and the Second Vice President Mohammad Sarwar Danish.
The Chief Executive of the Government Abdullah Abdullah had earlier called for the suspension of the distribution of the electronic National Identity Cards.
