I tried registering but it constantly gave me the error that “We couldn’t verify CNIC from NADRA, Please try again later.” What the heck!
i have the same problm
Did u get any solution for this problem. If so, kindly share
I tried registering yesterday and succeeded. Nothing needed to be done apparently except for normal procedure for registration(filling the provided form and submitting it), it no longer gave me the error. I think it was some internal fault which is now resolved.
