The teams – under eight zones of Rajuk – will inspect buildings that are over 10-storeys tall.

Zone 2 (Uttara, Tongi and Gazipur) Director Abdul Matin said three teams from his zones have been collecting information about high-rise buildings since morning.

The decision to inspect buildings was made after a deadly fire in Banani’s FR Tower, which killed 26 people on March 28.
