PAAPAM flays import of CNG buses from India

The Pakistan Association of Automotive Parts and Accessories Manufacturers (PAAPAM) has flayed allowing import of 10 years old Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) buses from India, announced in the Trade Policy 2008-09. Chairman PAAPAM, A Malik said Monday that Pakistan would become a junkyard of used machinery as a result of measures announced in recent Trade Policy. He said after five years of use in public transport, the buses would lose their efficiency and after 10 years would outlive their utility. staff report
