In a meeting on Thursday, Caretaker Minister of IT and Telecom Dr. Umar Saif stated that the Ministry of IT and Telecommunication (MoITT) will publish a policy directive in the coming days to increase smartphone accessibility for all individuals through reasonable installment choices.
During a high-level conference attended by the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA), GSMA, and cellular operators, the minister announced that MoITT will provide PTA with comprehensive policy directions about the smartphone installment scheme.
He underlined the necessity for banks, investment firms, and cellular carriers to launch creative packages that enable the general people to purchase smartphones through reasonable installment plans.

The minister clarified that after holding lengthy discussions with a range of stakeholders, policy directives would be released in response to their suggestions. With this effort, the public will be successfully reached by establishing a structure that guarantees banks, investment firms, and cellular carriers can offer smartphones in installments without suffering losses.
Dr. Umar Saif, in the meantime, described the repercussions for defaulters who don’t fulfill their instalment payments. These people would have their mobile phones disabled, making them useless.
In addition, though a final decision has not yet been taken, the idea to block defaulters’ national identity cards is being considered. Subject to an examination of legal matters, the cellular providers of the mobile phones may be responsible for blocking defaulters’ SIM cards.
The minister emphasized that the announcement of smartphone installment plans with attractive terms by banks, investment firms, and cellular carriers should be the top priority. In an effort to discourage nonpayment and encourage smartphone use, the group decided unanimously to disable defaulters’ phones.
It is anticipated that this increase in demand will help the nation’s economy, the mobile phone manufacturing sector, and cellular carriers’ ability to expand their service coverage to more rural places.
While acknowledging the difficulties that come with making important decisions, Dr. Umar Saif emphasized the need of laws that support economic development and digital inclusion.
