Electricity, gas shortage hit Pakistan

By IBNS
Sun Dec 11 2..

Islamabad: Increased prices of coal and wood have led to the shortage of gas in Pakistan this winter, media reports said on Sunday.


The prices of both the items have escalated in comparison to last year.

According to numerous media reports, gas is no longer available in a number of cities in Sindh, Punjab, and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. As a result of the gas load shedding, residents in Karachi, Lahore, Hyderabad, Multan, Peshawar, and Rawalpindi are concerned, and demand for LPG and firewood has also surged, reports ANI.

Despite doubling prices of Wood and coal, the plan to supply LPG to domestic consumers to meet their fuel needs is also ineffective.

According to local media, Sindh produces about 62 per cent of gas in the country and in return gets only 38 per cent of gas for Sindh. On the other hand, gas production in Punjab is only 3 per cent but Punjab gets 52 per cent of gas. In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, gas production is 15 per cent and its consumption is only 7 per cent, in Balochistan, gas production is 12 per cent and consumption is only 2 per cent.
