Wood stoves replace gas as supply falters

Gas shortages have persisted for over a month in several Dhaka neighbourhoods, including Jurain, Muradpur and Jatrabari. While gas was briefly available at night in the early days of the crisis, supply has been almost completely cut for the past three weeks, leaving residents facing severe hardship.

Despite having a Titas Gas connection, supply has been completely cut for nearly 20 days, forcing a woman in Jurain to cook on a wood-fired stove. Photo: Abdullah Al Momin
