Key industries like textiles and cement in Hub rely on steady gas supply, and the current shortages have led to factory closures, job losses as well as financial uncertainty for countless workers. This situation highlights a larger energy crisis in Balochistan, a region which supplies natural gas to the rest of Pakistan. The effects of this shortage are deeply felt in everyday life. The absence of heating during winter months can be dangerous for the vulnerable members of the community. Immediate action is needed, including improving gas infrastructure, increasing gas allocations for Balochistan, for the city of Hub, and ensuring fair distribution across sectors.
