The Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) has conducted 1,347 drives since the 29 February Bailey Road fire that killed 46.

Due to the lack of fire safety measures in establishments, DMP arrested 872 people during the drives and filed 20 cases so far, DMP Additional Deputy Commissioner (ADC) Niyoti Roy said today (6 March). 

Among the drives, 1,132 were conducted in restaurants, 207 in shops keeping gas cylinders and eight in chemical warehouses.
