A severe fire broke out in the Kalabagan area of Khagrachari town, completely destroying 9 business establishments and a battery-run auto-rickshaw. The incident began around 2:45 AM on the night of last Thursday (November 5) at a shop in the Kalabagan area, quickly spreading to surrounding wooden shops and furniture factories. Affected traders claimed that the damages exceeded one million taka.
Upon receiving the news, two units of the fire service rushed to the scene. Due to an acute water crisis in the area and the fact that the shops and factories were made of wood and tin, it was extremely difficult to control the fire. Later, with the joint efforts of local residents, the army, and the police, the fire was brought under control after about three hours of frantic efforts by dawn. The affected traders are now in distress after losing everything.
