F.P. Report
LAHORE: The unvaccinated people of Lahore will not be able to get petrol from September 1, on Friday.
The district administration has issued orders in this regard directing the filling stations to install banners alerting citizens about the new directive.
According to the new order, the staff at a filling station will sell petrol only to those customers who will produce their vaccination certificates.
While reacting to the new development citizens have rejected the restriction. However, the owners of the filling stations have decided to fully implement the order.
