Suddenly fire broke out .Even fire was engulfing every level gradually  and taking a monster look , like Doomsday , but still the exits are locked . Hundreds of people was charred , engulfed by monster fire and most of them burnt to death , some of the jumped down and died on the ground.. This is brutal picture of inhumanity ,where hundreds of poor employees were charred , because they do not have any workplace safety . Millions of poor employees , who are working in garments factory in Bangladesh , do not have any Occupational Health and Safety in their workplaces. Because the owners want to maximize the profits by ignoring all safety measures of workplaces and relaxation of law does not force them to implement safety rules and regulations.
