SHEIKHUPURA - More than 15-hour long gas loadshedding in different parts of the district particularly in city and its adjoining areas has adversely affected the life of the common man, especially in the prevailing chilly condition.
The people strongly condemned debilitating gas shortage in cold weather which made the life of people miserable.
They said that in winter when demand for gas increase loadshedding in their areas was started and people were forced to use gas cylinder and firewood for household purpose.
They lamented that people were already in miseries due to price-hike, lawlessness and unemployment but gas loadshedding had added their problems.
The citizens criticised the present rulers and the SNGPL management who jointly pushed the common man in to problems.
The residents of city and its adjoining areas blamed that there was no gas even to prepare food. A housewife Rasheeda, while talking to this scribe said it was the duty of the government to provide gas to domestic consumers without disruption during winter, otherwise it had no right to claim huge bill from the consumers.
People demanded the government to restore gas supply as early as possible and reduce their grievances, otherwise a strong protest would be launched against the rulers.
