Keeping record: NADRA registers over 86% women

Pakistan has emerged as one of the few countries in the world where over 86% women have been registered through a secure biometric technology introduced by the National Database Registration Authority (NADRA).
Four years ago, less than 50% women were registered, a spokesman for NADRA said on Friday.
The authority aims to achieve 100% women registration across the country, the spokesman said. Pakistan is also among the few countries that have fingerprint records and registration data of 96% of its adult population.
The authority is accelerating efforts to get its adult population, especially women, registered to help them get voting rights, education, health and employment, he said.
