October 16, 2020: Prime Minister Imran Khan has said that around 21,000 non-resident Pakistanis opened Roshan Digital Account remotely and sent 24 million dollars with the number still growing.

In a tweet, the Prime Minister expressed appreciation for Roshan Digital Account initiative of State Bank of Pakistan (SBP).
