Islamabad, August 17, 2025 – In response to the devastating impact of flash floods across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), Ufone 4G has announced a special initiative to provide free calls for subscribers in the worst-hit districts.
The move is designed to support distressed communities struggling to cope with the aftermath of sudden cloudbursts and severe flooding.
The floods, which have tragically claimed over 200 lives and washed away homes, roads, and vital infrastructure, highlight the increasing risks posed by climate change. Understanding the critical need for communication in such emergencies, Ufone has made complimentary minutes available to residents of Bajaur, Buner, Battagram, and Batal (Mansehra). These free minutes will allow people to remain in touch with emergency services, coordinate local relief efforts, and reassure family members during this difficult time.
History has shown that uninterrupted communication is essential to saving lives in disaster-hit regions. During the catastrophic 2022 floods, Ufone 4G offered similar services, which proved instrumental in supporting rescue missions, arranging urgent medical care, and facilitating the delivery of food and shelter to displaced families.
This latest initiative is part of PTCL Group’s broader corporate social responsibility program, which emphasizes disaster resilience and humanitarian relief. By keeping affected citizens connected when it matters most, Ufone reaffirms its long-standing commitment to standing alongside the people of Pakistan in times of crisis.
