MULTAN: The Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited (SNGPL) Task Force intensified operations against gas theft, illegal connections, and technical violations on the instructions of the General Manager on Tuesday, officials said.

During inspections at 55 locations across Multan, the task force disconnected four gas meters. 

Three meters had been illegally removed by consumers, while one meter was found in violation due to shifting. All meters violating regulations were promptly disconnected.
