Power crisis hits Sylhet

Frequent power outages coupled with sweltering heat over the past four days have made life miserable in the Sylhet city and its adjoining areas. Official and commercial activities as well as processing of tea-plants in the region are also being hampered due to the frequent power outages. Sources in the Power Development Board, Sylhet said they had been supplying 40 megawatts of power against the daily demand of about 130 megawatts over the past four days.
