KARACHI: Province’s sole gas distributor Sui Southern Gas Company Limited has Friday announced there shall be no CNG or RLNG for the gas stations on Nov 14 (Sunday) for a 24-hour-period across Sindh, ARY News reported.
The gas utility provider said the availability of gas has decreased and has resulted in depletion of line pack, due to which starting 8 am on Nov 14, there will be an outage of gassed fuels on the stations across Sindh. However, it said in the same announcement that the gas supply will resume at 8 am the next day.
The low pressure of gas now may not remain limited to the suspension of CNG and RLNG stations only as the new government stance has a scary outcome possibility.
