Ufone 4G Extends Lifeline to Flood Victims in KP with Free Calls in Bajaur, Buner, Battagram, and Batal

Ufone 4G has once again stepped forward to support flood victims in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) devastated by sudden cloudbursts and flash floods that ravaged multiple cities and towns.

The natural disaster, a grim reminder of the growing impacts of climate change, has so far claimed more than 200 lives, displaced thousands of families, and caused widespread destruction of public and private infrastructure including homes, roads, schools, and healthcare facilities.

Recognizing the urgency of search, rescue, and relief operations, Ufone 4G immediately rolled out free minutes for its customers in the worst-hit districts of Bajaur, Buner, Battagram, and Batal (Mansehra). The initiative for flood victims in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) is enabling people in affected areas to stay connected with emergency services, coordinate local relief efforts, and keep in touch with their loved ones at a time when communication is critical for survival.

The company emphasized that seamless communication plays a pivotal role in saving lives during disasters. Free calls allow communities to alert rescue teams, request medical assistance, and mobilize resources to deliver food, water, and shelter. Past experiences, including the devastating 2022 floods, have already proven how vital Ufone 4G’s free call services are in supporting humanitarian operations.

This timely step is part of PTCL Group’s broader Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program, which focuses on enhancing national resilience against climate-induced disasters by ensuring uninterrupted connectivity during emergencies. Ufone 4G reaffirmed its commitment to stand with the people of Pakistan in times of crisis, underscoring its role as not just a telecom operator but also a reliable partner in humanitarian support.

By leveraging its technology and infrastructure, Ufone 4G continues to bridge the gap between affected communities and emergency responders, reinforcing the critical role of telecom in disaster management. The initiative highlights the brand’s enduring promise of “Tum Hi Tou Ho”—putting people first when they need it most.
