QUETTA: CNG stations in Balochistan including those in Quetta are closed for the second consecutive day due to gas shortage, DawnNews reported on Sunday.

Two days ago, a gas pipeline was blown up in Naseerabad by unknown suspects due to which the shortage was continuing.

According to a spokesman of the Sui Southern Gas Company, security clearance has still not been given in the area which is why repair work on the pipeline has still not started.
