SRINAGAR, October 1: Apni Party district president Srinagar and former legislator Noor Mohammad Sheikh on Thursday expressed deep shock and
grief over a fire incident at Haft Chinar Aalochi Bagh Srinagar in which several residential houses were gutted.
In a statement issued here, Sheikh demanded immediate rehabilitation of the fire affected families and urged the district administration to depute a revenue team to the spot in order to assess the losses at the earliest.
“The district administration should immediately disburse ex-gratia relief to the fire victim families. The district administration should also ensure proper rehabilitation of the fire victims, besides paying them adequate compensation,” he added.
The Apni Party district president also appealed to people especially living in the congested areas in the Srinagar city to take extra precautions in order to thwart such mishaps in future. “Such tragic
incidents at times prove fatal for precious human lives besides causing irreparable damages to the properties,” he said.

the city. He also expressed solidarity with the fire affected families and assured them of every possible help.
