Uri, Dec 22, Dec. 23 -- Residents of Boniyar tehsil in north Kashmir's Baramulla district have raised serious concern over the absence of a Fire and Emergency Services station in the area, saying the lapse has repeatedly resulted in loss of property and homelessness. Locals said that Boniyar, comprising over 50 villages, has no dedicated fire tender. Fire engines, they said, are dispatched either from Baramulla town, around 30 kilometres away, or from Uri town, which has only one fire tender catering to nearly 100 villages of Uri and Boniyar.Mushtaq Ahmad, a resident of Boniyar, said demands for a fire station have been pending for several years. He said delayed response from distant locations makes it impossible to control fires in time....
