Srinagar, July 27: Property worth crores of rupees has been destroyed in a devastating fire incident in the down town Srinagar during the night intervening Monday and Tuesday.
An official of Fire and Emergency Department (F&ED) said that fire broke out at Palpora Noorbagh in the down town city late last night.

Meanwhile, Apni Party (AP) District President Srinagar Noor Mohammad Sheikh expressed deep shock over an overnight fire incident at Palpora-Noorbagh in which five residential houses along with two sheds were gutted down.
In a statement issued here, Sheikh said that such an incident has shattered the hopes of the fire affected families who need to be rehabilitated so that they face no further inconvenience.
“The district administration must disburse ex-gratia relief to the fire victim families on a prompt basis. Besides paying an adequate compensation, the concerned authorities must ensure that their proper rehabilitation is ensured at an earliest,” he demanded.
