November 07, 2023 (MLN): The Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA)'s Enforcement Department recently executed a targeted operation in Gujranwala, successfully uncovering and sealing four illegal LPG Cylinder Manufacturing Facilities, Spokesperson OGRA informed the media today. 

These unlawful facilities were discovered operating with substandard materials and practices.

OGRA promptly sealed them, and FIRs have been registered against their operators, he added. 

This action underscores OGRA's unwavering commitment to ensuring the safety and well-being of consumers. 

Illegal gas cylinder manufacturing has gained prominence, driven by the high demand for this essential household item, especially in regions with a shortage of piped or natural gas.

OGRA is resolute in its mission to eradicate this menace.

The authority is committed to safeguarding public safety by addressing the production of substandard LPG cylinders, which pose a significant safety hazard, including the risk of potential explosions. 

OGRA has also issued a stern warning to all illegal LPG cylinder manufacturers, urging them to immediately cease all activities prohibited by law, or they will face strict legal consequences.
