Govt Hailed For Introducing Quality Diesel

MUZAFFARGARH, (Muzaffargarh.City – 02nd Nov, 2016 ) : President Pakistan Businessmen and Intellectuals Forum (PBIF) and Senior Vice Chairman of the Businessmen Panel of FPCCI Mian Zahid Hussain lauded the decision of the government for introducing quality diesel in the market.

Pakistan State Oil (PSO) had been directed to introduce better quality diesel by January which would have a positive impact on vehicles and environment, he said. In a statement issued here on Wednesday, he said that the sulphur content in the diesel to be introduced would be 90 per cent lower than which was being consumed at present.

Mian Zahid Hussain said that Petroleum Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi had done a commendable job by initiating better quality petrol in the country. The authorities had promised to introduce RON 90 quality petrol in November this year to replace RON 87 used in Pakistan and Somalia, he said. The import of better quality petrol and diesel would help PSO increase its market share.
