Telenor Zero-Rated University Sites
This initiative was introduced to offer zero-rated access to a range of university websites, enabling students to access educational resources such as course materials, lecture videos, research articles, and other academic content. By eliminating data charges for these websites, Telenor Pakistan sought to enhance access to education, particularly for students who might have limited internet connectivity or face financial constraints.
