Pakistan: Influential politicians are 'gas thieves'

Responding to petroleum minister, Khwaja Asif's allegations, Chairman All Pakistan CNG Association (APCNGA), Ghayas Paracha, Sunday said that influential politicians were in fact 'gas thieves' and not the CNG retailers, Geo News reported. "Khwaja Asif's declaring all CNG sellers as 'thieves' is highly deplorable", said he addressing a press conference here. Parachi further added that the minister used unparliamentary language against CNG sellers, which APCNGA condemned in the strongest of words. "Petroleum minister's statement betrays his immature, irrational, and childish approach", said Paracha. He lamented that it was really disappointing see those, who the nation had elected to solve country's problems especially energy crisis were, instead of doing their job, shifting the blame to other stakeholders.
