The Federal Government of Pakistan plans to establish the largest public facilitation centre for CNIC and passport services in Karachi, as directed by Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi on Tuesday. Located on I.I. Chundrigar Road, the Grand Facilitation Centre will consolidate various citizen services under a single roof. Naqvi instructed the authorities to prepare and submit the master plan for the centre within ten days.

The facility will house counters for all departments and organizations under the Interior Ministry, providing services such as passports, CNICs, arms licences, and NOCs. Additionally, Naqvi inspected 21 new vehicles from China, marking the largest expansion of Islamabad Rescue 1122 and Fire Brigade's fleet since 2009. The new fleet, expected to arrive in Karachi within five days, includes four aerial fire trucks, six fire towers, and five fire tenders equipped with advanced firefighting and rescue equipment.

These vehicles will serve at six stations across Islamabad, enhancing the city's emergency response capabilities. Naqvi expressed gratitude to the Chinese government for expediting the supply of these crucial vehicles, praising their timely arrival as a significant improvement for Islamabad's emergency response system.
