From Sunday, CNG pumps to stay closed from 6-10pm daily

After a flip-flop, the Bangladesh government has finally decided to keep CNG refuelling stations across the country closed for four hours daily from Sunday.

The CNG pumps will remain closed from 6pm to 10pm daily from September 19, the Ministry of Power, Energy and Mineral Resources said in a notification on Wednesday night.

Earlier, a decision was taken to keep the CNG refuelling stations closed for six hours, from 5pm to 11pm from September 15.

But that decision was later shelved and the new one was taken only after consultations with the owners of CNG stations.
