Rozina Khatun, a duty officer at the fire service headquarters, told the Bengali Tribune that 43 houses and 12 shops were burned in the fire in the Kalshi slum in Mirpur. The extent of the damage and the start of the fire can be determined after an investigation. Initially, there is no idea about this.
Altaf Mahmood, a staples merchant in the slum, said: “My business did not go well during the coronation period.” The last month has been a little better. I have bought some new products in the store. That will also be around 2 lakh rupees. They were all burned to ashes in an hour-long fire last night. I have nothing more to say about capital. I can’t stand up anymore. In no way did I understand how the fire started so late at night, or how someone started it.
Shamsur Rahman, the owner of the burned pot, said: “I had 3/4 lakh Tk worth of goods in my shop.” In an hour everything was burned in the fire. A total of 12 tents have been burned here. Traders have calculated it. We have lost about 50 lakh rupees in the shops alone.
Traders complained that they did not know from the fire service whether the fire had started. They themselves have no idea how the fire started. However, there may be another hand behind your claim.
On the other hand, in addition to these 12 stores, 55 houses were burned to the ground. Although there were no casualties, Mashiur, who lost his home, said it would be difficult for slum dwellers to recover.
Fatema, who has been living in a poor neighborhood in Sherpur for more than a decade, said: “I leave the house in the middle of the night yelling at everyone.” There was nothing in the smoke. Then the fire burned. After a while the fire service arrives. They sprayed water and put out the fire. But we didn’t understand where it came from. Arguments continue in the suburbs since the morning. This did not catch fire. Someone can catch it.
