PESHAWAR: The gas consumers in a various parts of the provincial metropolis have resented the late delivery of utility bills and called for rectification of the situation.
A number of gas consumers from Zaryab Colony, Faqirabad, Yousafabad, Corporation Colony, Faisal Town, Momin Town and several other localities on the Dilazak Road complained to The News that the bills issued by the Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited were not being delivered to them in time.
The affected residents said the late delivery of the bills had been in practice since long and all complaints by the consumers to the relevant authorities had fallen flat.
“The gas bills issued by the SNGPL on January 1, were delivered in Zaryab Colony and several other areas today (January 12). Interestingly, the last (due) date for depositing the amount is January 15.
The delivery of bills after 12 days of its issuance is source of trouble for me and other consumers,” said Mahtab Ahmad, a resident of Zaryab Colony.
