A forest fire that had been burning in the 32 and 34 Compartments of Veshow Range for the past four days has now been fully contained.

Range Officer Ghulam Mohd Khan confirmed the fire was under control and expressed relief over the resolution. "We are relieved to report that the fire has been completely controlled. A big thank you to the residents of Manzgam and Watoo for their incredible support during this crisis. Their efforts were vital in managing the fire on the ground," Khan stated.

The fire had posed significant risks to both the environment and surrounding communities, but thanks to the combined efforts of the local residents and the Veshow Range forest department, damage has been minimized. Authorities are now conducting a thorough assessment of the affected areas and are putting measures in place to prevent future incidents. The collaboration between the forest department and local communities was crucial in successfully managing this crisis.
