ISLAMABAD:Citizens heaved a sigh of relief as Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) on Friday gradually restored internet services all across Pakistan after a three-day long disruption amid PTI’s protests against the arrest of PTI chief Imran Khan in the Al-Qadir Trust corruption case.
PTA stated internet service was being gradually restored adding that social media applications including YouTube, Twitter and Facebook had also been reactivated. The internet services were suspended by the PTA on Interior ministry’s instructions.
