February 08, 2023 (MLN): The Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) has taken a strong stance against illegal hoarders in the Punjab province, advising the Chief Secretary to take strict action against those found guilty.

The authority has identified a number of illegal petrol and diesel storages through market intelligence and has shared this information with the Chief Secretary to help prevent a deliberate shortage in the province.

OGRA has also dispatched enforcement teams to check storage and ensure a smooth supply of petroleum products. This action is aimed at preventing hoarding and other illegal activities that can cause shortages and affect the general public.

This move by OGRA demonstrates the authority's commitment to ensuring a stable supply of petroleum products and cracking down on illegal activities that can harm the public. The enforcement teams will be working around the clock to ensure that the province's petrol and diesel supplies are not interrupted and that consumers have access to the products they need.

OGRA's efforts to tackle the issue of illegal hoarding and to ensure a stable supply of petroleum products are commendable.
