On Maryam Nawaz Sahiba’s behalf, let me reassure you that she promised as much in her victory speech when she was elected Punjab’s chief minister. She promised to give Punjabi students free Wi-Fi, laptops, and iPads, and she has now delivered on her promise by starting this project to offer free Wi-Fi.
Public Wi-Fi hotspots
The province’s public Wi-Fi hotspots are designed to close the digital divide by offering central public spaces accessible, dependable, and user-friendly Internet access. In the districts of Lahore, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, Bahawalpur, and Murree, the PITB has installed 200 free Wi-Fi hotspots. Wi-Fi hotspots have been installed at government and educational buildings, as well as in public parks, marketplaces, hospitals, train and bus terminals, and airports.
Free Wi-Fi locations
The Punjab’s Chief Minister has directed that the free Wi-Fi pilot project begin within the first two weeks. Ten Lahore public spaces, including hospitals, universities, bus stops, train stations, etc., will have Wi-Fi as part of the pilot project. After completing the experiment project, 516 Wi-Fi hotspots will soon be operational across Punjab.
Usage of Free Wi-Fi
Trained personnel are on duty at the call center around the clock to handle and resolve complaints and provide technical support. Hospitals have been found to use these free Wi-Fi hotspots the most, followed by colleges and universities. Additionally, free Wi-Fi has made it possible for government employees from different departments to quickly use centrally-maintained online services in the field. The Chief Minister of Punjab has authorized the project’s expansion to other significant cities in the province, citing the favorable response from the populace as evidence of the initiative’s success.
