Lahore High Court Chief Justice Umar Ata Bandial yesterday summoned the Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) Secretary over a plea seeking action against substandard CNG cylinder manufacturers.
The single bench comprising chief justice passed the orders on a petition filed by petitioner-counsel Rana Mehtab.
As proceedings started, OGRA’s counsel pointed out that a report had been filed on behalf of regulatory body regarding steps taken for the purpose.
However, the chief justice termed the report insufficient after reviewing it.
The petitioner-counsel appraised the court of recent incidents of cylinder explosions which left many dead.
The chief justice directed OGRA to take steps for stopping such incidents and adjourned the matter till February 4 besides summoning the secretary OGRA on next date of hearing.
The petitioner, in his petition, submitted that a number of persons lost their lives in explosions of CNG cylinders fitted in public transport vehicles.
He contended that the explosions were taking place due to substandard cylinders and their installation by incompetent road- side mechanics.
He contended that the respondent departments were also guilty of negligence as they were not performing their duties in accordance with law.
He pleaded the court that directions be issued to respondents for taking immediate action against substandard CNG cylinder manufacturers and substandard installation workshops.
