Summary Government has announced to block mobile phone service as precautionary measures.
While keeping in view the security risk on the eve of 12th of Rabiul Awal, the government has decided to block mobile phone service in more than 20 cities including Karachi, Rawalpindi, Islamabad, Peshawar, Quetta and Multan.
According to sources, the decision has been taken after some corners of the society had requested the interior ministry to halt mobile service in order to avoid any untoward incident.
Pakistan Telecommunication Authority has issued orders to suspend mobile phone services from 10 am to 4 pm on tomorrow (Friday).
Owing to Seeratun Nabi Conference in Lahore arranged by Tehrik Minhajul Quran, mobile service would be jammed from Thursday night near Minar e Pakistan and its suburbs.
