Aasia Ishaque said that government is continuously sabotaging the apex court’s verdicts, giving reference of Sugar prices, she said that in this case, government had also not supported the Supreme Court and implementation on decision could not be made in letter and spirit.

She said that government and CNG associations are jointly working for the creation of difficulties for the people, resulting CNG became “missing item” on CNG stations and pumps and people while transporters are facing hardships in this regard.

She said that a large number of public transport had been shifted from Oil to CNG in recent years so now, it’s very hard for millions of commuters to get the public transport on the roads of Karachi and other big cities of country.

She said that children who used to go schools, colleges and universities, on their own vehicles or public transport are also facing severe consequences of Supreme Court’s verdict which was very good for people but government and CNG associations made it “bad news”.
