Region vs. Telephone Area
A PTA number plan area usually corresponds to a district or grouped districts, not an exact city boundary or a caller’s present location. Mobile, toll-free, universal-access and short-code ranges are non-geographic. Number portability, call forwarding and internet telephony also prevent reliable subscriber or current-carrier identification from an area code. Geographic labels for Azad Jammu and Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan reproduce the terminology in the official PTA numbering plan and do not resolve territorial-status questions.
A code listed beside a city reflects a featured numbering association; it does not assert that every community in Punjab uses that code or that the code stops at the administrative border.
