OWING to the increasing demand for online classes and examinations being held online, as well as other chores, every citizen now is in need of a good internet connection to carry out daily errands.

I also am in need of a fast and reliable internet connection. To fulfill my need I went to a PTCL office on Aug 17 to obtain a landline connection at my home.

The staff present told me that all their portals were overbooked and refused to install a connection. I insisted with the staff to find a way as I was finding it difficult to attend online classes or do my assignments and they promised to oblige. They asked me to fill out an application and complete all formalities.

A week has passed since I completed all formalities but I am still waiting for a connection.

This is a request to PTCL authorities to install a landline connection at my home as my online education is adversely affected.
