If you take a look at the Rayer Bazar Dhaka City Corporation Market, you will see that the age-old building is on the verge of falling apart.

When the half crescent appears in the western sky to announce the advent of the holy month of Ramadan, some of our brothers in trade see it as a gold pendant hanging up there, while some others perceive it as a dollar bill.

A fire that breaks out at a kitchen market near Mannan Plaza in Khilkhet area of Dhaka is doused.

The fire service yesterday started a probe into the Karwan Bazar fire that gutted 186 shops on May Day.
