Claim: Turkmenistan has been providing free water, gas & electricity to its citizens from 1993 to till date.
Fact-check: Turkmenistan government is no longer offering free water, gas & electricity to citizens - FACTLY
Verdict: while it is true that turkmenistan government provided free water, gas and electricity to its citizens from 1993, the provision was ended in 2019 by then president gurbanguly berdymukhamedov. bad economic situation due to fall in energy prices and noticeable increase in the income of the population, are among the reasons mentioned behind the move. currently, no such provisions offering free amenities exist in turkmenistan. hence the claim made in the post is misleading.
