A devastating fire broke out at a colony owned by Alamgir Hossain in the Biswaspara area of Kaliakair upazila, Gazipur, on Sunday morning (October 4, 2026) around 10:30 AM. Starting from an empty room, the fire quickly spread to surrounding units.
Two units from the Kaliakair Fire Service rushed to the scene and brought the blaze under control after about an hour of effort, though most rooms were locked, preventing residents from salvaging their belongings. Colony owner Alamgir Hossain estimated the damages at around Tk 15 lakh, citing the total destruction of furniture, almirahs, beds, showcases, refrigerators, fans, and other household goods.
Kaliakair Fire Service Station official Iftekhar Raihan Chowdhury confirmed that two units successfully contained the fire within an hour, while the exact cause remains under investigation.
