Dhaka airport's fire safety system lags behind international standards

Airports are such facilities, where a large number of passengers, employees, and aircraft operations are carried out every day. A large quantity of fuel, electrical equipment, and mechanical materials is used here which can create the apprehension of fire incidents. So, an effective and well-organized fire safety plan is essential for protecting lives, minimizing property damage, and ensuring business continuity. However, unfortunately, the grade of fire safety systems at our international Hazrat Shahjalal Airport is far behind international standards.
