Chandpur, March 7 -- Several families from the Harijan community in Purba Bazar, Matlab Dakkhin upazila of Chandpur, are living under the open sky after a devastating fire destroyed their homes on 27 February.

The fire, which originated from a battery shop in the evening, quickly spread to nearby areas, engulfing 10 shops and five houses in Harijan Polli.

Many affected families have been left without shelter, struggling to survive with limited resources.

"We ran out of our homes to save our lives, but we couldn't take anything with us. Our house burned down, and we have lost everything," said Shankar, one of the fire victims.
