BSF jawan dies after fire guts barrack in Bandipora

A Border Security Force (BSF) constable died after a fire broke out in a barrack of the 62nd Battalion camp in north Kashmir’s Bandipora district late last night, officials said.

An official said that the incident occurred in the Madar area of Bandipora, where a fire engulfed the barrack, completely gutting the structure. The constable, who was inside at the time, could not be rescued and was charred to death.

The body was later shifted to the District Hospital Bandipora for medico-legal formalities, after which it will be sent to his native place.

The deceased has been identified as Ramesh Kumar, a resident of Jalandhar, Punjab. Authorities have taken cognizance of the incident. (KNO)
