Central leader of All Pakistan Compressed Natural Gas Association (APCNGA) Ghiyas Abdullah Paracha said the government had laid the foundation of the CNG industry’s complete revival by allowing private sector players to participate in the Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) business.
“The present government has taken a key step towards revival of the CNG industry that was once considered the country’s one of biggest sectors when 3.7 million petrol and diesel-run vehicles were switched over to it [CNG] and millions of people got employment. Foundation of its revitalization has been laid with opening up the LNG sector,” he said while talking to APP.
Paracha, who is also CEO of Universal Gas Distribution Company (UGDC), said the date for private LNG import, mainly for CNG stations, would be announced within the next few weeks.—APP
