72% of affected telecom sites have already been restored, PTA

PTA Ensures Connectivity in Flood-Affected Areas, Free Voice Calls and Swift Network Restoration

Islamabad : In this hour of national need, the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA), in collaboration with Cellular Mobile Operators (CMOs), stands with the people affected by the devastating floods. As part of the relief measures, CMOs are offering free on-net voice calls (same network) to subscribers in flood-affected areas.

This initiative ensures that customers, including those with zero balance, can remain connected with their families and emergency services during these challenging times.

More than 72% of the affected telecom sites have already been restored. PTA, in close coordination with CMOs, is making all-out efforts to restore the remaining sites at the earliest possible time.

PTA highly appreciates the timely efforts of CMOs in extending support to telecom consumers and reaffirms its commitment to ensuring uninterrupted connectivity. PTA will continue to closely monitor telecom services in the affected areas and provide timely updates.
