2020- Digital Pakistan Launching Ceremony

Speaking at the launching ceremony of the Digital Pakistan Vision at the Prime Minister's Secretariat, Prime Minister Imran Khan stated that digitalization is critical for the benefit of the people as it would assist the government to bring a meaningful change in the life of the common man. This, he further contended, would reduce the paper in use by the federal government with an obvious positive impact on environment as well as provide opportunities to women to contribute to this sector and cash in on more jobs in the economy.

The biggest hindrance to financial inclusion is the high cost of cards based on international schemes. As a result, a huge proportion of the population is unbanked and under-served. The unbanked population doesn’t have access t...
