LPG Distributors Association Pakistan Chairman Muhammad Irfan Khokhar has urged the government to remove duty levied on the distributors. Talking to media persons here on Tuesday, he said if the government failed to take pragmatic measures, the LPG prices would further increase in the country.
He said the government should monitor the shutdown schedule of refineries and also allow import of LPG.
During the period from August to September 2006, the LPG production in the country was 1600 MT per day while on the contrary consumption of the LPG remained 2,200 MT per day, he added.
