Titas Gas Transmission and Distribution Company Limited conducted a mobile court drive in Narayanganj on Tuesday and severed illegal gas connections to curb unauthorized use and safeguard government revenue.


The operation was carried out at Langalbandh under Bandar Thana where 6,655 cubic feet of gas wastage was prevented, valued at around Taka 18,100 per day and Taka 506,000 per month.

During the drive, 320 feet of illegal pipelines spread across a two-kilometer area were removed, leading to the disconnection of 300 residential burners, nine commercial burners and one oven, reports UNB. 

The mobile court also imposed a fine of Taka one lakh on an accused for using illegal gas connections.
