Of the 10 or so fire incidents that take place daily in Dhaka city (as per Fire Service data), only a few turn dangerous or massive and hit the news. Such has been the Bangabazar complex fire of April 4.
There is no denying, by any parties, that this complex was at risk of such a fire. Now, who’s to be held responsible for the oversight in not preventing the Bangabazar fire? The designated city corporation? Or the market authorities?
Bangabazar fire: A massive fire broke out at Bangabazar market in the capital this morning. Forty-seven units of fire service are working to control the Bangabazar market fire.
