District Coordination Officer Rizwan Mehboob directed owners of CNG stations on Saturday not to supply gas to public transport vehicles failing to comply with the Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) regulations.
The notification issued on Friday says those vehicles with their CNG cylinders installed under the passenger seat or in the boot will not be given CNG as these led to fatal accidents.
The civil defence and labour DO’s said they would ensure its compliance.
All buses on routes managed by the Lahore Transport Company are already following the standards.
