Bangladesh to resume industrial gas connections
The Bangladeshi government has concluded plans to resume gas connections to industries after a lull.
Zanedra Nath Sarker, chairman of Petrbangla (Bangladesh Oil, Gas and Mineral Corporation), made this known on Tuesday in Dhaka, adding that
authorities were actively considering providing new gas connections to the industries.
He said they had shared their positive opinions with the country’s energy and mineral resources division.
“We do hope that the division will soon take its final decision in this regard,’’ Mr Sarker told reporters.
He said that they always attach much importance to industries in offering gas connections considering economic aspects.
The country’s previous government, in April, decided not to provide electricity and gas supply to new factories if they were set up in any other places.
But that this can done except in government-designated economic zones or industrial enclaves.
