Punjab Free Wifi Project | Free Internet

Punjab Free WiFi Project, which was initiated by Chief Minister Punjab Maryam Nawaz Sharif, focuses on giving free WiFi services to the residents of the province.
The purpose of public Wi-Fi hotspots in the province is to bridge the digital divide by providing free, easy and reliable Internet access in major public places. Punjab Information Technology Board has set up 200 free Wi-Fi hotspots in Lahore, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, Bahawalpur and Murree districts. The Wi-Fi hotspots have been set up at educational and government buildings, public parks, market places, hospitals, railway stations, airports and bus stations.

The highest use of these free Wi-Fi hotspots has been recorded at hospitals, followed by universities and colleges. The free Wi-Fi facility has also enabled on-field government officials from various departments to utilise centrally-maintained online services in a relatively seamless manner. The positive feedback of citizens is a sign of success for the initiative and the Chief Minister of Punjab has approved the extension of this project to other major cities of the province.
Such initiatives can have various benefits for the Public, such as promoting digital literacy, facilitating access to information, and fostering economic development by enabling online entrepreneurship and innovation. They can also enhance communication and connectivity, making it easier for people to stay connected with each other and with the world.
