Traders are now relocating their goods from Annexco Tower, a building that was affected by the fire that burnt the Bangabazar Shopping Complex to the ground yesterday.
The fire that has been raging for more almost six hours at the capital's Bangabazar originated in a shop at Adarsha Market, a market under the Bangabazar Shopping Complex, witnesses said.
The devastating fire at the Bangabazar Shopping Complex may have burnt more than Tk 1,000 crore worth of investment into ashes, said the president of the Bangladesh Dokan Malik Samity, the apex trade body of shop owners.
The massive fire that ripped through the Bangabazar Shopping Complex this morning at the capital's iconic clothing market was brought under control at 12:36pm. The fire burnt for more than six hours, burning the market to ashes.
