Investigators are investigating 16 issues to uncover the cause of the horrible explosion at the Jame Mosque in Fatullah, Narayanganj. The investigative committee of four agencies, including the fire service, observed various signs inside and outside the mosque throughout the day on Sunday. Although authorities claimed that the gas pipe did not run through the bottom of the mosque building, many gas leaks were found under the surrounding roads, including the mosque. It is also investigated whether there is any negligence on the part of the two authorities in the construction of the mosque building and the gas connection.
Although the cause of the fire is believed to be an electrical short circuit, other sources of fire are also being investigated, as there was no major damage to the electrical equipment. However, the electrical panel was not safe when it was open inside the mosque. Fire service and civil defense experts have said that any small-source fire in a gas-filled room could cause an explosion. The methane gas, they say, was like a gas chamber inside the air conditioning (AC) room of the mosque. Because of this, the same damage has been done everywhere. The faithful have suffered similar injuries, including tracheal burns. How this gas became explosive is now the main topic of investigation.
Vice President of the Electronic Security Association of Bangladesh (ISAB). After inspecting the site, Manzur Alam told Kaler Kanth that the main reason for the explosion and fire at the mosque was the excessive presence of emitted gas, where there was an excess of methane gas. The mosque once turned into a huge gas chamber as the gas accumulated.
Whether it was because of the crowd or for some other reason, the faithful could not guess. This gas entered the stomach of the worshipers through their breathing. If the spark (fire spark) ignites in less than nanoseconds while trying to change the power line, it seems like the whole house will explode and catch fire. The fire burns almost all the worshipers almost equally and all suffer inhalation burns.
Deputy Director of Fire and Civil Defense Headquarters. Nur Hasan said: ‘There was no fire inside the mosque due to the air conditioning blast. The gas inside the mosque caught fire. And there was a spark in the blink of an eye when the muezzin switched the line manually due to the power outage. At that moment, fire broke out throughout the mosque. “Even after that, we are investigating whether there is any kind of sabotage behind the fire,” he said. It was not okay to install electrical panels inside the mosque in this way. It was not safe to keep the board open again.
DPDC investigators said the fire could have started from a short circuit. However, many things, including the switchboards and connections, have slightly burned out. It is doubtful that the first fire came from another source. The entire electrical connection is being checked. AC compressors and fans were in danger of exploding if the source was added. Too much gas, too little fire can cause these types of incidents.
According to the sources, the investigation committees are analyzing 16 questions to determine the origin of the fire. The first thing you see is if the fire originated from a short circuit. If there is a kitchen anywhere in the building of the second mosque. If the children set fire to the building while playing or in any other way. If there are signs of sabotage. If the fire came into contact with the gas line. Where do the gas lines go and where is the possible leak? – The committee is looking for answers to such questions. In addition, the district administration committee handles the responsibilities of the electricity, gas Titas and mosque committee.
Gas lines throughout the Talla de Fatullah area have been cut since the explosion last Friday night. Locals say the line has been closed without warning. Although there are unsafe lines in the area, authorities have ignored it for so long. Now the line has been closed because the whole thing is caught. Ali Mohammad Al Mamun, managing director of Titas, said on Saturday that two light bulbs (connections) in the area had been closed after the accident.
Jafrullah Chowdhury on the scene
Meanwhile, the founder and patron of the public health center visited the place yesterday afternoon. Jafrullah Chowdhury said that those fires occur due to the lack of good governance and proper management. This problem must be treated properly. He demanded compensation of 10 lakh rupees from the government for each family of those injured and killed in the explosion.
Going to the site in the afternoon, engineer Ishraq Hossain, son of BNP leader Sadek Hossain Khoka, said: “It seems that the code of safety regulation that is required according to the building code is not here.” There is a lack of coordination between the energy department, the gas department and the locals. The road in front of the mosque is always flooded. When reading between the union and the city corporation, no one wants to take responsibility here.
