Chamber leaders demand
Our Correspondent, Pabna
Pabna Chamber of Commerce and Industries leaders, at a press conference held at the Press Club auditorium here Friday night, demanded of the Western Gas Company authorities to give permission for establishing CNG stations in the district town. The Chamber leaders lamented saying although there is gas supply in Pabna but no CNG station was established here due to negligence of the gas company. They said earlier four companies got permission to set up CNG stations here, but the gas company cancelled their permissions due to unknown reasons. They demanded of the authorities concerned to reconsider their decision. At present there is a CNG station at Pakshey in Ishwardi upazila, 30 kilometre off of the district town, they said adding, the lone CNG station cannot cope with the demand of the entire district. Pabna Chamber of Commerce acting president Mahbubul Alam Mukul addressed the conference.
