General

Following a tragic cylinder explosion in Hyderabad that claimed the lives of 27 individuals, Sindh government has initiated a crackdown on illegal gas cylinder shops across the province.

The Sindh Home Department issued a directive to all district administrations, ordering immediate action against shopkeepers operating gas cylinders illegally.

The department emphasized that gas cylinder shops must not be located in crowded or residential areas and should instead be moved to less populated zones.

In a letter to deputy commissioners, the Home Department ordered the relocation of illegal LNG and LPG shops outside city limits and instructed the confiscation of substandard cylinders.

The government also mandated that these shops follow the standard operating procedures (SOPs) set by the federal authorities to ensure public safety.
