Bangabazar traders seek loan: Traders of Bangabazar Complex, who were running their business on loans, have urged the government to ensure that they do not have to pay instalments for a specified period as they are recovering from a recent fire at the apparel market in Dhaka's Gulistan.
The fire at Bangabazar on Tuesday morning not only affected shop owners at the apparel shopping complex in Dhaka's Gulistan, but also other players in the supply chain.
A massive fire ripped through the capital’s Bangabazar Shopping Complex yesterday, burning down at least 2,931 shops full of clothes and ruining the livelihood of several thousand traders just weeks before Eid.
