The district administration has re-sealed four petrol pumps in Wari after their owners allegedly violated government orders by reopening the outlets that had previously been sealed for overcharging and violating Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) rates.
The operation was carried out by Additional Deputy Commissioner Upper Dir Dr. Sadiq Ali and Assistant Commissioner Wari Dr. Fawad Ahmad Khan. The administration also sent the managers of the petrol pumps to jail over the violations.
Four Petrol Pumps Re-Sealed
According to the district administration, the following petrol pumps were found to have been illegally reopened:
Nayab Petrol Pump, Wari
PSO Petrol Pump, Wari
Shell Petrol Pump, Wari
Lowari Petrol Pump, Wari
The outlets had previously been sealed over allegations of overcharging and violations of government-approved fuel prices. However, their owners allegedly removed the seals and resumed operations without authorisation.
Strict Action Against Violators
The district administration said violations of government orders and illegal activities would not be tolerated. It warned that strict legal action would be taken against those found responsible for such violations.
