Petrol supply shortage has intensified in Balochistan and as a result masses are forced to buy smuggled Iranian petrol on high prices.
Petrol supply shortage started fifteen days ago and masses are facing a lot of difficulties due to this. Petrol is not present on a single petrol pump in Quetta city. The shopkeepers have increased the prices of petrol, that has been smuggled form Iran, from Rs 60 to Rs 100.
On the other hand the smuggled Iranian petrol is being sold openly, in the residential area of Civil Line Police station, which can be a cause of a major accident.
Masses have demanded from the Federal Minster of Petroleum and CM Balochistan to take notice of this acute petrol shortage.
