Traders at the Bangabazar Shopping Complex, one of the largest clothing retail and wholesale hubs in Bangladesh, are typically busy buying and selling products ahead of Eid-ul-Azha each year.
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.
"Fire has spread to at least six markets"
The cause of the fire could not be known immediately
