Islamabad residents will soon enjoy free internet access across the city. The government has confirmed that the free public Wi-Fi project will officially launch by December 30, 2025. The initiative aims to boost digital connectivity and support the growing needs of students, professionals, and citizens.
Free Public Wi-Fi for Over 30 Key Locations
The free public Wi-Fi service will initially cover more than 30 major spots in Islamabad. These include metro stations, Daman-e-Koh, Fatima Jinnah Park, and several commercial areas. By targeting high-traffic public spaces, the government aims to make the service accessible to as many people as possible.
Officials have described the project as a major step toward turning Islamabad into a fully digital city. The service will offer fast and reliable internet, enabling citizens to stay connected on the go. It will also help students and professionals who rely on stable internet for work and studies.
Expansion Plans for Other Cities
The initiative is not limited to Islamabad. According to the government, similar free Wi-Fi projects are also being planned for Lahore and Karachi. This nationwide rollout aims to bridge the digital divide and support Pakistan’s broader Digital Transformation Vision.
Once live, the free Wi-Fi network is expected to make daily life more convenient. It will enable people to access essential services, navigate the city, and stay connected without relying on mobile data.
The December 30 launch date marks an important milestone in Pakistan’s journey toward a connected future.
