3G and 4G auction was pending in Pakistan for last 5 years which only
added frustration among telecom operators and the technology lovers as
well. But this time, a very committed and visionary Chairman of Pakistan
Telecommunication Authority, Ismail Shah was tasked by the government of Pakistan in September 2013 to execute the process despite all odds.
After 4 months of taking control of PTA, his appointment was challenged once again in the court the way it was done with his predecessor Farooq Awan on more logical grounds.
Not only that his appointment remained an issue but the process itself
was defamed by many hidden entities, of course that included a local and
foreign hand. Certainly, he was backed by Minister of IT and Telecom
and the high ups of PML-N government who were more keen to accomplish
the job.
