Bangladesh's industrial sector is grappling with a critical gas supply issue. While industrial machinery is engineered to operate at a pressure of 10 PSI, current supply levels have plummeted to just 1.5 PSI. This significant shortfall is severely hampering manufacturing operations. According to industry stakeholders, manufacturers are prioritizing consistent and adequate gas pressure over financial subsidies to maintain production viability.
