3G Services in Gilgit-Baltistan

Letter August 03, 2015
If 3G service is launched in G-B, it will help fill the gap of the lack of internet services in the region

GILGIT: Cellular companies have launched 3G services in all parts of our country, except in Gilgit-Baltistan (G-B). The people of G-B are waiting for these services to be launched in their area, but the federal and provincial governments seem oblivious to their needs.

If 3G service is launched in G-B, it will help fill the gap of the lack of internet services in the region. I request the G-B and federal governments to kindly take this issue seriously and facilitate the establishment of 3G services.
