After a three-day suspension, the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) on Friday confirmed that it had started restoring internet services across the country, reported Dawn. The PTA said in its statement that access to social media platforms Facebook, Twitter and YouTube was also being restored in the country.
The telecom regulator suspended mobile broadband services across the country on May 9 on the interior ministry`s directives. Enraged PTI supporters resorted to violence attacking military and government buildings in Lahore, Rawalpindi, and Peshawar. The step was taken by the authorities to control the spread of chaos, while access to major social media sites including Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube was also blocked since then.
