Lack of ATMs 

Letter February 06, 2026
Lack of ATMs 

Turbat has been facing a lack of ATM for quite some time, even though consistent complaints have been made by citizens. Despite being the second the second most populated city in Balochistan, there are still not enough ATMs. Citizens often have to wait for hours on end when they need to withdraw money. And even after hours of waiting, many people often return home empty-handed as machines either lack cash or fail to process transactions — leaving them without their funds.

The government of Balochistan must pay heed to the inconvenience that our people are facing and provide more bank branches as well as ATMs in Turbat so that people do not have to go home empty-handed.
