Dear Members, If indeed the ID check at Pakwach is no longer being done as reported by Tabu Butagira following the announcement by the State Minister for Internal Affairs, we should all congratulate Tabu for bringing up this issue/or alerting us about this issue, and the people who followed it up with the authorities. I know how almost everyone on this forum felt about the pain of the ID Check at Pakwach. Hopefully no checkups will occur at Pakwach any more in future. I urge the people who travel through Pakwach to be vigilant and report any violation of the directive the government has announced about NO check point at Pakwach. A big thank you to everyone who contributed to the success of this endeavour.
