Cellular service suspension is expected across major cities of Pakistan on account of security situation during Chehlum processions of Hazrat Imam Hussain (R.A).
Sources in cellular companies confirmed RexHacker that they have received an email from Pakistan Telecommunication Authority instructing them to remain prepared for the service closure.
Name of cities and timings for service suspension will be communicated to cellular companies later.
It is likely that service will remain suspended from 6 AM to 6 PM in majority of cities, while the duration of service suspension may get extended till 10 PM for more conflicted areas.
