SSGC’s Task Force belonging to the Customer Relations Department conducted a major raid in Surjani Town against illegal users of gas and disconnected about 200 gas connections. The residents of the area were found using gas directly from the distribution pipeline without metering. The quantum of gas used through this illegal arrangement was about Rs. 5 million per annum.
According to details, the Task Force undertook this raid on Wednesday morning on lead from a reliable source regarding illegal consumption of gas in KDA Flats Phase-2, Surjani Town and Gulshan-e-Shahbaz. The Task Force summarily disconnected illegal connections for their failure to pay their gas bills.
After the completion of the operation, SSGC’s Nawab Ali Shah, Deputy Manager (Task Force) CRD requested the residents, who had gathered on the spot, to pay their dues at the earliest so that the gas utility can restore their connections. He briefed them about the difficulties being faced by SSGC due to the non-payment of gas dues regularly by its valued customers. Meanwhile, the Company’s Security Services Department provided the members of task Force full security cover.
