The Karachi Transporters Action Committee has expressed concern over the government’s plan to close CNG stations in the province for a month. The members of the committee, including its president Mohammad Ashraf Banglori, in a statement on Sunday said people are already exposed to serious difficulties due to closure of CNG supply to the vehicles, once or twice a week. “The authorities concerned must not ignore the plight of commuters, particularly those using public buses as their means of transportation,” they said. The transporters said the closure will jeopardise the massive investments made in CNG sector and deprive thousands of their livelihoods.
