KARACHI: In a protest held outside the Karachi Press Club on Sunday, the Jamaat-e-Islami criticised the Sui Southern Gas Company over its “failure to supply gas to Lyari and other parts of the city”.
JI leaders warned of holding protests outside the utility company office and the Governor House if the federal and provincial governments failed to restore gas at normal pressure.
Speaking at Sunday’s protest, JI lawmaker Syed Abdul Rasheed said the problem of gas shortage had started in Lyrai after “the gas pipelines in the area were flooded with sewage”.
