The authorities have yet again disconnected the gas supply to the CNG stations in Karachi for three days, reported 24NewsHD TV channel on Friday.
According to the Sui Southern Gas officials, the closure of the gas supply to the CNG stations is for 72 hours i.e. starting from 8am on Friday to 8am Monday.
The Sui Southern Gas, in a statement, said that the decision to suspend the gas supply to the CNG sector was due to the low pressure. In order to improve gas supply to the domestic consumers the supply to the CNG sector has been suspended under the load management plan, the company added.
In reaction, CNG Association Senior Vice-President Shoaib Khanji declared the gas supply suspension as cruel. The government should initiate steps to revive the CNG sector or shut it down completely and return the deposit money, he added.
