Gprs is a function of your network and service provider.
You need to phone them, and see if Gprs is available there, and if so, get the prices and ask them to activate it. Then you can use it for whatever you need.

Not all networks have Gprs available yet, not sure about Pakistan.

With General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) you can enjoy a continuous wireless connection to data networks and access your favorite information and entertainment services. GPRS technology allows mobile phones to be used for sending and receiving data over an Internet Protocol (IP)-based network. GPRS as such is a data bearer that enables wireless access to data networks like the Internet. The applications using GPRS are WAP, MMS, SMS, Java and the PC dial-up (for example, Internet and e-mail).
The GPRS availability depends on the network, please contact your network operator or service provider for more information.

And yes, GPRS is available in Pakistan to my knowledge.
