Pakistan’s Ministry of Information Technology has announced plans to resolve the ongoing internet speed issues plaguing the country within the next three months. This development is expected to provide relief to millions of users, including businesses heavily reliant on stable internet connectivity for their operations.
The slow internet speeds in recent months have disrupted several sectors, including e-commerce and digital education. Officials attribute these problems to infrastructure challenges, coupled with increased demand for bandwidth.
