• 7 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, some of our constituents end up waiting for a whole year before they are issued with identity cards. We have students in our constituencies who have been admitted to teachers training colleges, but they cannot join because they have no identity cards, yet they have been waiting for a whole year. Is there a timeframe, a duration, within which when one applies for an identity card, he or she is issued with one? view
