PTA ends leniency as Oct 31 mobile quality deadline expires
After the Oct 31 cut-off, a PTA chairman visit across Islamabad and Rawalpindi saw Hafeez-ur-Rehman test calls and data speeds with all operators present.
PTA Chairman Hafeez-ur-Rehman personally tested voice and mobile internet quality in Islamabad and Rawalpindi after the operators’ improvement deadline ended on October 31.
The field tour covered Blue Area, sectors G-7, G-8, G-9 and G-11, and Srinagar Highway, with all mobile operators’ representatives accompanying him.
Where gaps appeared, he ordered company officials to fix them at once and said PTA would grant no relaxation on service standards.
Last week, PTA Director General Enforcement Brigadier (retd) Amir Shahzad ran drive tests at major twin-city roads, the airport and T-Chowk Rawat.
