BAHAWALPUR: Hundreds of women belonging to Shahdara Colony staged a demonstration against gas loadshedding outside the SNGPL regional manager office here on Thursday.
The women holding sticks were chanting slogans against the SNGPL for conducting gas loadshedding. The protesters also entered the SNGPL building. They warned of ransacking the office if the SNGPL failed to restore gas supply.
Talking to The News, the protesting women said that they had been without gas for the last one month. They said that the SNGPL had become a burden on national exchequer because it had failed to provide gas. In the meantime, the SNGPL regional manager held talks with the protesting women and assured them of resolving their issue.
