Father, everything has been burnt to ashes except my lungi and my wife's old sari". This is how poor Har Gobind Mallick was lamenting in a tearful voice telling the media workers about the burnt houses and shops. In the municipal area of Kamalganj upazila of Moulvibazar, houses and shops were burnt to ashes. Today Thursday (March 16) at 4 o'clock in the morning, the fire incident took place in the house of local Har Gobind Mallik.

Tea shop attached to our room. Both of them live with the income from the shop selling tea. Everything in our house was burnt. Nothing left. I don't understand what to do. I am spending my days worrying about where to stay, what to eat, how to run the family.
