KARACHI: The majority of CNG stations went against the ongoing strike and resumed their business despite the warning of SNGPL to cut the supply of CNG to pumps involved in the protest Aaj News reported on Friday.

On Thursday, the All Pakistan CNG Association (APCNGA) called off the ongoing strike, which, sources say, was called after the SNGPL said that it would cut supply of gas to CNG stations involved in the strike.

Sources said, the SNGPL warned that it would divert the supply of gas to the industrial sector if the association continued the protest.

The CNG stations in Lahore, Gujranwala and Multan regions would remain open on Friday.

Meanwhile, the APCNGA Supreme Council Chairman Ghayas Piracha claimed that 99 percent CNG stations remained closed on Thursday from Sadiqabad to Attock.

Out of a total 2,267 CNG stations in the province, owners of 2,250 closed their business against unjustified gas distribution policy of SNGPL, he said.

However, stations in Faisalabad, Bahawalpur and Islamabad would remain closed due to the load management plan of the SNGPL.

The association also organised a protest rally from LCCI to the Governor’s House on Mall Road.

They blocked the traffic for about an hour. The protest was attended by a large number of CNG pump owners and workers.

A SNGPL statement said that negotiations were held between the Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Resources officials and representatives of All Pakistan CNG Association over two days to resolve the situation.
