Bangladesh faces major power cuts, mirroring Pakistan's crisis
Bangladesh is grappling with intense power shortages and load-shedding, a trend similar to the one seen in Pakistan. Due to the ongoing crisis, angry citizens have targeted power facilities in various regions, leading the state-run utility company, BPDB, to request police protection for its substations, grids, and offices. To manage the situation, authorities have mandated that shopping malls close by 8 pm and illuminated billboards be turned off by 7 pm.
