Block No.84-B, Flat No.16, Sector G-9/2 Islamabad Pakistan is facing acute shortage of Sui gas for domestic use since last some weeks particularly in the evening the gas escapes creating great difficulties for the people to cook meals, tea etc.and breakfast. From 9.00 a.m. till 11.00 p.m. night, the gas is completely shut down resulting in difficulties in preparing meals and tea etc. due to load shedding and low pressure of gas. There is no alternate of the gas in Islamabad to be used in the absence of gas. Despite repeated reminders to the Sui Gas Department, nothing has been done. As a result of load shedding, most of the people are forced to purchase gas cylinders and to use dry woods in their homes which is not affordable.

2. At present, the people are surviving without heaters and purchasing meals and tea from hotels due to complete load shedding and low pressure of gas every day which the poor and middle class people cannot afford daily and the hot water has become a luxury. The telephone numbers of Sui gas department are continuously busy and nobody picks up the phone when the line is free.

3. We always pay Sui gas bills but we are continuously deprived of Sui gas without any solid reason.

4. In view of the position stated above, please look into the matter and direct the concerned department to address the problems of Sui gas in Block-84-B, G-9/2, Islamabad and surrounding area immediately. Moreover, if there is any problem in the gas pipeline, the same may be checked and repaired immediately to provide gas facility to the people without break.

Thanks.
