RAWALPINDI: A massive fire erupted in the Urdu Bazaar on Thursday close to iconic Lal Haveli in Rawalpindi.
More than ten fire brigade vehicles of the Water and Sanitation Agency (WASA) are at the site to douse the flames and are facing immense hardship due to the narrow streets and gusty winds.
The fire has engulfed over 20 shops and is spreading further to nearby shops. WASA Managing Director Raja Shaukat is present at the site overseeing the firefighting operation. The cause of the blaze is uncertain but is reportedly caused by a short circuit.
