The All Pakistan CNG Association (APCNGA) on Saturday asked the government to review its gas load shedding schedule and ensure uninterrupted supply of natural gas to the CNG sector for five days a week. “CNG is the only business in the world which remains closed for 18 days a month while it works partially in the rest of the days due to unprecedented load shedding, pushing us to the brink,” said Ghiyas Abdullah Paracha, chairman Supreme Council APCNGA. He said that APCNGA has repeatedly given practical recommendations to the caretaker government to resolve the energy issue but unfortunately not a single proposal was accepted. The proposals, he said, would have added 1,500MW to the system and made gas available for additional 24 hours a week to the CNG and fertiliser sectors and the general industry. Paracha said that following the suit of former government, the interim government has been taking unilateral decisions which will result in destruction of the CNG sector. He alleged that the CNG, fertilizer and general industry was being destroyed to promote influential owners of captive power plants which will not be tolerated.
