Who chaired the task force?
Information Technology and Telecommunication Minister Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui chaired the 17-member group, as reported by Dawn.
Who was named as a member?
Dawn identified several members and their roles at the time. Its report gives notable names, not a complete roster.
#1 Best Overall
- Jehan Ara, then president of P@SHA and chief of Nest I/O.
- Dr Attaur Rehman, former chairman of the Higher Education Commission.
- Zohair Khaliq, co-founder of Teamup NIC.
- Shahid Mustafa, chief executive of Telenor Microfinance Bank.
Dawn’s correction clarified Mustafa’s affiliation: Tameer Bank was acquired by Telenor and rebranded as Telenor Microfinance Bank in 2017. The report does not list all 17 members, so these names should not be taken as the full membership.
