ISLAMABAD: A special committee constituted by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif to review the Pakistan Telecommunication (Re-organisation) Amendment Bill 2026 amid controversy over its multiple clauses has suggested major changes to its language.
The committee, headed by Law Minister Azam Nazeer Tarar, had submitted its report on the right-of-way provisions in the bill, according to a statement issued by the law ministry.
Interestingly, the bill has already been approved by the National Assembly earlier this month.
The special committee reviewed in detail the proposed amendments included in the bill as well as the existing legal framework related to right-of-way.
