Pakistan considers tax relief to expand high-speed Internet in remote areas

Pakistan is exploring tax relief measures for telecom companies that build or operate high‑speed internet infrastructure in remote areas. The idea would lower the tax burden on these companies, encouraging more investment in coverage where connectivity is limited. Expanding internet access is viewed as a means to improve communication and information services for isolated communities. The proposal, reported by Arab News PK and shared on Google News, reflects the government’s ongoing efforts to widen digital inclusion.
