The new year sun rises amid three-day CNG closure across Sindh multiplying the miseries of commuters and motorists in the province. According to Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC) announcement regarding schedule for closure of CNG stations, all the filling stations in Sindh were closed from 08:00 am on Tuesday till 08:00 am on Friday for 72 hours. The SSGC officials were of the view that the step had been taken to meet the growing gas demand for domestic consumers during winter. It was crucial to suspend CNG supply to the filling stations, they added. The Sui gas authorities said the gas utility took this step to improve the line pack position across the province, which was badly disturbed due to short supply of gas from different gas fields causing depletion of line pack and low pressure in the system.
