Lahore: The Punjab Environmental Agency on Monday announced to test fuel quality across the province.

For the purpose, EPA spokesperson said that agency has all set to collect fuel samples from petrol pumps in province.

Spokesperson continued that EPA teams will conduct these inspections in collaboration with oil and gas regulatory authority (OGRA) and Oil Marketing agencies (OMCs).
