The notification says that CNG stations will remain closed on Thursday, Friday and Saturday and reopen at 6 am on Sundays.

The chairman of APCA Ghayas Paracha regretted the government’s move for CNG closure and said that the government had backtracked on its promise despite their commitment of eight months of cooperation.
Paracha rejected the new schedule and warned that CNG associations may decide to close CNG stations across Pakistan at the meeting.
Earlier, in a statement an SNGPL spokesman on Thursday had asked the operators of CNG outlets not to supply gas to vehicles during the scheduled closure, adding action would be taken against those violating the directive.
