DU Correspondent A fire broke out at a classroom of Dhaka University's (DU) Urdu Department on Thursday afternoon. The department's Chairman Prof Dr Md Israfil said that the incident occurred at room no. 3055 of the Arts Faculty around 1:15pm. The staff of the department managed to extinguish the fire after frantic efforts. "Furniture and a computer in the classroom were gutted during the fire," he added.
