UNB, Nilphamari :
Forty-five shops were gutted as a fire broke out at Babur Hat Bazar in Dimla upazila on early Wednesday.
The fire erupted from an electric short-circuit of a shop at the market around 4am and it soon spread the adjoining business establishments, said Abdul Wahed, stationmaster of Sadar Fire Service.
On information, three fire-fighting units from Sadar, Domar and Dimla stations rushed in and doused the blaze after two hours of frantic efforts.
