LAHORE – While taking serious notice of gas supply suspension to the textile industry in Punjab, President Asif Ali Zardari has directed the Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited (SNGPL) managing director to ensure five days a week uninterrupted gas supply to the textile industry in the province of Punjab.
According to the APTMA spokesman, the president has further directed the concerned authorities to divert gas supply to the export-oriented textile industry from the power plants of independent power producers (IPPs) in order to keep the industry wheel running and generate employment in the country.
He said that the president has also assured the APTMA delegation that the condition of gas supply suspension would be lifted from the textile industry once and for all with improvement in gas availability in the country.
