A sweeping disruption in internet services and popular social media applications has left users across the country frustrated, grappling with connectivity issues, and encountering errors on a recent Saturday.

As of now, the cause behind this substantial outage remains unclear, and the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) has not released any official statements regarding the matter. This lack of information has left users in the dark about the reasons behind the disruptions.
Some individuals speculate that the current disruption in internet services is linked to the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) virtual public meeting. However, it’s important to note that these claims lack official confirmation.
There’s a historical context where internet services were suspended in Pakistan during speeches by Imran Khan, raising questions about the potential connection between political events and internet disruptions. Despite this recurring pattern, concrete evidence is yet to be established. Clarification and transparency on such matters are crucial to dispel uncertainties and ensure the public is well-informed.
