The BTRC head said they want to provide quality mobile service through the 5G network. “Now we’re providing internet service up to the rural area. There’ll be no house in the country without internet and bandwidth within 2024.”
Posts and Telecommunication Minister Mustafa Jabbar, who was also present at the seminar, said there are various allegations about the coverage of 2G, 3G and 4G networks across the country as mobile phone operators are unable to provide adequate internet services.

“We’ll formulate a guideline through discussions with people and stakeholders so that no one faces inconvenience while using the 5G network, Mustafa Jabbar added.
