Gas Cut in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Hostel Raises Questions Amid Unpaid Bills
In a recent development, the Provincial Sports Directorate
of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has disconnected the gas supply to a hostel due to
non-payment of bills. The hostel has been without gas for a week, creating
difficulties for its residents. Surprisingly, long-term employees residing in
the hostel have managed to secure gas cylinders for personal use, enabling them
to cook meals.
Sources from the Sports Directorate reveal that the
electricity gas meter was removed a week ago due to an outstanding bill of Rs. 200,000
PKR, leading to the gas cutoff. However, the exact details of how the bill
accumulated to such an amount remain unclear. The hostel residents, who live in
separate rooms, declined to comment on the billing issue, citing it as a matter
for account holders to address.
The hostel superintendent disclosed that around sixty thousand rupees have been deposited by account holders to cover the bills for October and November. He expressed hope that the gas supply would be restored soon.
Meanwhile, there are speculations among some Sports Directorate members that needle gas lines may be directed at night, although this information is yet to be verified. The situation underscores the importance of resolving billing discrepancies to ensure the smooth functioning of essential services in the hostel.
