Bangladesh is experiencing widespread and frequent power outages as a severe heatwave drives up electricity demand. While district and divisional cities report relatively limited disruptions, rural areas and smaller towns are facing prolonged blackouts, impacting daily life and economic activity. Authorities from the power division maintain there is no production deficit, despite reports of consistent electricity cuts from consumers. The increased temperatures are exacerbating the strain on the power grid, leading to load shedding across the country. Residents are struggling with the heat compounded by the lack of consistent electricity. The situation is causing significant inconvenience and hindering both household routines and business operations.
