The Daily Morning Voice Online Desk: The government has hiked the gas price for industries, power production and hotels and restaurants, effective from next month. However, the price of gas used for household, fertiliser production and CNG-run vehicles will remain unchanged, according to a gazette notification issued today. The price was hiked following an executive decision of the government. The government on January 12 raised the electricity price for consumers, on average, by 5 percent, skirting around procedures of Bangladesh Energy Regulatory Commission (BERC).
