Gopalganj district is experiencing severe and consistent power outages, with electricity unavailable for approximately 17 hours each day. Residents and businesses, particularly those served by the West Zone Power Distribution Company (WZPDCO), are facing significant hardship due to the intense heat and unreliable power supply. The prolonged load shedding has led to growing frustration among customers. WZPDCO officials now fear potential attacks on their offices and substations from angry customers. Consequently, the power company has requested security assistance from local police to protect their facilities and personnel. The situation highlights a critical infrastructure issue and escalating public discontent in the region. These widespread disruptions are anticipated to continue without intervention.
