ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – The residents of twin cities of Pakistan, Islamabad and Rawalpindi have to face gas load shedding as the areas receive first rain of the winter.
Halted gas supply has added to the problems of the people of Sadiqabad, Shamsabad, Dhoke Kashmirian and Tench Bhata while in Margalla Town of the federal capital, Police Foundation and CDA G6 sector the pressure of gas was so low that housewives could not prepare meals.
The Sui Northern Gas Pipelines (SNGPL) maintained that the gas load shedding was caused due to a technical problem at the Adhi field near Daultala, however, would be restored in a day or two.
Despite the hike in gas tariff the government failed to improve the supply. The people have demanded government to restore gas supply immediately.
