According to a news report in Pakistan, more than eight billion tonnes of gas have been stolen. National losses have now mounted up to 30 billion per year out of which, some are caused by gas theft and some due to technical problems. A campaign against gas theft has been launched which has exposed different cases and sent them to the police for investigation, but it has its own shortcomings. Unfortunately, the thieves are protected and the police has failed to arrest them. People in some areas are facing many problems due to the shortage of gas. I would like to request the government to take serious action and punish those who are making life miserable for the others.
