@Liberal Sindhi: Another crybaby.
Ironic! The logo of OGRA as printed in the article above reads "Guarding Public Interest"! There is such lovely humour in our country if we really pay attention! :)
@ maher pitty on your thinking it clearly says upon the request of SNGPL and SSGL then how it would go CNG ( so called mafia )even if goes to 85 then the increase would be due to increase GAS charges for all Sectors either Domestic ,fertilzier ,textile and cng sector as well. it is because of us that having little knowledge about the matter we continue to write comments as if we are phd in the matter .go in depth of matter and then comment.
Bus owners will increase their fares again, which they haven't reduced yet :P
Sindh should get all money from the gas produced in Sindh. Pakistan is treating Sindh like Balochistan. They want to STEAL our natural resources like COAL and GAS.
to open the discussion /evaluation the government should site the reasons and give the statistics for reacting the proposed price of gas so that if necessary it can be debated within and outside Parliament Media should also print the reasons. News clip by ET does not serve the desired purpose.
thanks OGRA huhh!!!
