A number of liquid gas stores have been shut down by government authorizes for selling liquid gas at high prices.
According to the Head of Herat’s Fuel and Liquid Gas, Khesraw Abdullah, a survey of the liquid gas stores was carried out by a committee of attorney representatives, provincial officials and the Union of gas sellers.
Mr. Abdullah added that the committee might monitor the stores at least once a week.
The residents are supportive of the committee’s work and called on the government to set prices for the wholesalers.
