Affect of CNG closures

Letter July 26, 2011
Enforcing a two-day holiday for all CNG stations will financially affect the staff working at those facilities.

FATEH JANG: I usually talk to people while shopping or travelling since this gives one a real picture of society. This past week, I saw hundreds of vehicles used for public transport parked on the roadsides because of the closure of CNG stations in Punjab. Most of the staff at the facilities work on a daily wage basis and this means that for at least eight days in a month they have to find alternative means to work since the provincial government is enforcing a two-day holiday for all CNG stations
