Dr Kamal for forming national commission

Staff Correspondent: Jatiya Oikyafront convener Dr Kamal Hossain has demanded formation of a national commission to find out whether there is any lack of law in ensuring safe construction of high-rise buildings in the country.

Dr. Kamal, also the president of Gono Forum, came up with the demand while talking to reporters after visiting the fire-ravaged FR Tower in the city’s Banani area on Friday.

“We should form a national commission to assess whether there’s any lack of law in ensuring safety since high-rise buildings are being built every day,” he said.

At least 25 people were killed and over 70 others injured in the devastating fire on Thursday.
