    Sherry says PPP will not support any PTA bill in Senate sans 'thorough' standing committee debate

    PPP Vice President Senator Sherry Rehman stated the party will not support the Pakistan Telecommunication (Amendment) Bill 2026 in the Senate unless it undergoes thorough debate in the standing committee and includes PPP's proposed deletions. The bill, criticized for allowing telecom companies to use public land without fees, was approved by the National Assembly but stalled in the Senate due to objections over clause 27-A, which deals with land acquisition. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif formed a committee to review the bill, but PPP insists revisions must be processed through the Senate committee.
