Civil society members under the banner of Narayanganj Nagarik Committee yesterday besieged a Narayanganj electricity office and demanded relief from the severe power outages before the Ramadan and Durga Puja.
The committee besieged the superintend engineer’s office of Dhaka Electric Supply Authority (DESA) on Bangabandhu street of the city and submitted a memorandum regarding their demand.
A B Siddiqui, convenor to Nagarik Committee, Abdur Rahman, Rafiur Rabbi, Advocate Abul Kalam Azad, Haji M Hasnatullah, Abdus Sattar, Mohor Ali Chowdhury and Jannatul Ferdous spoke during the programme.
The speakers said power outages in Narayanganj worsened recently. Household water supplies, production in the industries and students’ studies — everything dependent on electricity is immensely affected due to the outage.
DESA authorities assured the committee of resolving the situation soon.
