SUKKUR, June 3: The National Database and Registration Authority (Nadra), Sukkur Region, has installed kiosks (billing machines) at 19 of its Swift Registration Centres to facilitate people in depositing payments of their utility bills.

The kiosks started working from Thursday. Ten more kiosks would be installed in other towns soon, said director general of NADRA, Sukkur Region, Col Khalid while briefing newsmen at his office on Friday.

He said that people could pay their electricity, gas and telephone bills through this modern system. Nadra would soon provide online ticketing for Pakistan Railways and Pakistan International Airlines, he added.

People could deposit their bills at any Swift Centre, which would remain opened from 8.00 am to 10.00 pm and to receive bills on first-come-first-served basis, he said.
