Neutral summary
A sudden power outage hit parts of eastern Dhaka and some areas of Chattogram on Tuesday, 27 October, starting around 12:43 pm. Dhaka Times reported the affected areas included Bhultaa, Haripur, Siddhirganj, Gulshan, Rampura, Ulon and Motijheel, and said the cause was not immediately known. Power Grid Company of Bangladesh (PGCB) said it was restoring the national grid system in stages, while noting power in the north and other areas was normal. Banglavision, citing a Power Division special notice, said the outage was due to a mechanical fault, and that supply had been restored in most areas, with the rest expected to return soon. The authority expressed regret to consumers for the temporary inconvenience.
Where accounts differ. Dhaka Times said the cause was not immediately known, while Banglavision attributed the outage to a mechanical fault in a Power Division notice.

About this method
Method. Bias types follow the Table of Media Bias Elements and the Media Bias Taxonomy (both CC BY 4.0). The impartiality rules follow the BBC Editorial Guidelines and the Ofcom Broadcasting Code. The score is calculated from the seven answers, never generated.
What this is not. No outlet gets a standing bias rating, and there is no left/right axis, because that axis does not describe Bangladeshi politics. Each analysis covers one article about one event. Members' analytics count how each outlet's headlines were labelled over a chosen period, with the number of headlines behind every share, and also show the average score of an outlet's scored articles: that average describes those articles (mostly each story's lead), not the outlet, and outlets are never ranked by it or by any share.
Known limits. Headlines are grouped into stories automatically, so an unrelated headline sometimes slips in; it is shown faded rather than hidden. Where outlets carry the same wire copy, the comparison has little to show. Human annotators agree on bias in Bangla news only moderately (κ = 0.574 at best), which limits what any automated score can claim.
