LPG mafia took out an additional Rs 60 to 70 billion from the pockets of the public

LPG mafia took out an additional Rs 60 to 70 billion from the pockets of the public. The public kept buying LPG, which costs Rs 309 per kilogram, at a price of more than Rs 600. Taking advantage of the energy crisis due to Iran-US tensions, the LPG mafia sold LPG at its own arbitrary price and is still selling it in large numbers today. According to the data of the Pakistan LPG Distributor Association, more than 6 million kilograms of LPG are sold in Pakistan every day. OGRA has set its price for the month of June at Rs 309 per kilogram, but LPG is not available anywhere at this price. Every plant, every company and every shopkeeper has its own rate. The people have been forced to buy the most expensive LPG in the history of the country. The consumption of LPG in Pakistan is more than 6 million kilograms. If you multiply 6 million by Rs 300, it will be one billion eighty crore rupees per day. If you calculate it for a month, it will be more than 54 billion eighty crore rupees and this money is being taken out of the pockets of the people and there is no relief._x000D_
