He said that the demand for gas in Pakistan is 1500 million cubic feet, while 1200 million cubic of gas being provided to the citizens.
He said that Sui Southern Gas Company has a mission to ensure maximum supply of gas to the masses.
He emphasized masses to avoid excessive use of gas and turn gas heaters off when unattended and when go to bed, he added.
"When using a gas heater, be aware of how to use it safely. Always follow the operating instructions on the appliance or in the manual", he added.
"Keep gas heaters at least one meter away from all flammable objects including furniture, drapes, books and boxes", he said.
He further said that government is taking potential steps to minimize the cost of gas in winter season.
Addressing the function, the religious scholars said that natural gas is a blessing and stressed citizens to not waste this natural source.
