Industries Minister Khandaker Abdul Muktadir stated that the Ashuganj fertilizer factory in Brahmanbaria cannot be resumed immediately due to the natural gas crisis and high demand from power plants and other industries. He informed the parliament about this on Thursday in response to a question.
Member of Parliament Nadia Pathan Papon mentioned in parliament that the factory's production has been halted for about 19 months, despite having an annual production capacity of around 3,000 crore taka. In response, the industries minister stated that due to limited gas supply, the government is currently prioritizing factories with higher production capacity and modern machinery.
He assured that the matter of supplying gas to Ashuganj and other factories will be considered in the future if gas pressure increases and additional supply capacity is created.
