This is so worrying. With summer coming, tourist season will start in Pahalgam. Authorities must conduct strict fire safety audits for all hotels and resorts in the valley. Prevention is better than cure.

Good to hear the situation is under control and no lives lost. J&K's tourism has seen a revival lately, and incidents like this can hurt local businesses. Speedy recovery to Asal Resort.

The response time seems to have been good. Having visited Pahalgam last year, I know how crucial these resorts are for the local economy. Hope the investigation finds the cause to prevent future incidents.

While it's a relief there are no casualties, we must ask if all necessary fire safety protocols were in place. Many older structures in hill stations are vulnerable. This should be a wake-up call for all.
