ISLAMABAD: Pakistan has settled their policy directive for the most hoped-for auction of 3G licenses in the land.
Consorting to Minister of State for Information Technology Anusha Rehman, the four mobile phone companies in the country had shown interest in the auction. The minister added that the policy directive would be approved by the Federal Cabinet Advisory Committee on Thursday.
Rehman added that the stipulation to introduce 4G into the Pakistani market would also be part of the auction.
On September 28 while hearing the petition seeking the completion of the 3G license auction process and the appointment of Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) chairman and members, the Supreme Court directed the government to expedite the auction process.
