At least seven houseboats were gutted in a massive fire incident in Nigeen Lake in Srinagar.
An official told The Kashmiriyat that on Monday morning, a massive flame erupted from a house which spread to the nearby houseboats immediately, causing damage to them too.
He said that fire tenders were soon rushed to the spot and they tried to douse off the flames.
“The fire erupted around 2:12 AM and damaged seven houseboats at the Nigeen club. We have received no reports of injuries so far,” the official said, adding that the fire had been brought under control.
