Generator Use: Ban on selling petrol in bottles decried
Residents of the city have protested over the “unjust” directive
ATTOCK:
The ban imposed on the sale of petrol in bottles is creating a lot of problems for those using generators. Residents of the city have protested over the “unjust” directive and demanded that the ban should immediately be lifted. Masses from different walks of life who had come to purchase petrol for their generators told APP on Monday that petrol pumps owners were not allowing them to fill petrol in bottles as it has been banned by the administration. They said that with load-shedding at its peak, those using generators certainly need petrol, adding, it is not feasible for them to bring their generators to the petrol pumps.
