Why the BISP 8171 Portal Was Closed
The main reason for closing the BISP 8171 portal was that too many people were trying to use it at the same time. This caused the system to slow down and even crash in some cases. Also, the old system had outdated features that were not good enough for such a large number of users. To solve these problems, the government decided to upgrade the portal. The goal is to make it faster, safer, and easier to use for everyone.
