According to Awais Bajwa, a spokesman of SNGPL, the gas supply to CNG stations of Lahore, Sheikhupura, Gujranwala, Multan and Sahiwal region would be restored at 6am on Wednesday.

On the other hand, two-day CNG closure hit thousands of commuters hard in the provincial capital and caused disappearance of transport on many routes.

Minivans and rickshaws took advantage of CNG closure and overcharged.
