3 years after paying for PNG connections, Lucknow’s Ashiana sector J residents still await the supply

Residents of Ashiana sector J are bearing the brunt of lack of coordination between the Green Gas Limited (GGL) and the Lucknow Municipal Corporation (LMC). Three years after depositing money for getting piped natural gas connections, they are running from pillar to post but the PNG supply seems like a distant dream.

“Almost all houses of sector J had deposited the Rs 12,400 needed to get a PNG connection back in 2016. At that time, officials of GGL had promised us that we would get the supply within 15 days,” said Ravi Srivastava, a resident of the area.

“However, the Green Gas Limited has not even laid down the pipelines,” he said.
