The Registry Center (RC) schedule provided that paper passports issued by RC representatives to reach the village of Punia would arrive at exactly 1 pm and will have exactly one hour to divide.

The most impatient elders began choosing here shortly after noon. Some of the arriving professionals were waiting both inside and outside the building.

The spokesman for the Mindaugas Samkus Registry Center said that the Punia nursing home was the third today, which was visited until noon on Monday.

“We see a lot of people coming. There really are a lot,” he said, saying that if they fail to issue a passport within the allotted time today, they will be provided the service the next day.

As you can see, most of those who came were older people who said that a paper passport had come here because they just didn’t have internet at home.

“I don’t have the Internet,” said a man speaking in the administration building. Another, standing next to him, added that most of them are here.

“I also don’t have the internet or electronic signature, nothing.

I only need that passport, not for the shops. But here it may be necessary to take an interurban bus ”, he considered.

Another woman interviewed said that she had the opportunity to get a passport because she would have to travel to the doctors, and another explained that she lived alone, she did not have internet and if she did, she would not be able to get it. a passport herself.

“Not everyone here gets it,” he said.

Admittedly, after all, some lacked the patience to wait in a huge queue.

“We better go to the Alytus Registration Center unit. I really didn’t expect there to be so many people here.

I think we will turn around faster, “the older one outside urged the others to go together.

There were also a number of residents who brought their parents or even came looking for them to collect their passport.

“It just came to my attention then. I may have to go to the outpatient clinic because it is not clear whether the government will decide to change the order again. It may be said that you cannot go to hospitals if you do not have a passport.

Today we learned to betray and I arrived. But I think we will not wait, a very large queue. I better take my mother to Alytus, to the RC unit, ”said another woman.

“And I came for my passport, my wife and my neighbors. They are up to three “, laughed the other man speaking, and the other joked that he would go” to the girls “with his passport.

There were also a number of people who came to the document because they could enter larger stores after September 13, although, according to them, there are not many in the area.

“I’ll take it and be calmer. Maybe it’s necessary, maybe not. It is important to have and then I can be calm ”, said another interlocutor.

A spokesperson for the Records Center, M. Samkus, said that several other elders visited on Monday also received multiple people. According to him, only in the town of Punia around a hundred passports of opportunity were distributed.
