Srinagar: After overnight rainfall in Srinagar muddy water has inundated nearly half a dozen shops at the refurbished Polo View market in Srinagar even as authorities said there was no drainage failure.

President Polo View market, Haji Mohammad Ismail told the news agency Kashmir News Observer that muddy water has entered few shops in the market.

He, however, said that it was not known how the shops got inundated while a team of officials visited the area.

CEO Srinagar Smart City Athar Amir told KNO that there is no drainage failure as all the drains in the market are almost dry.

“We are looking into the issue and it seems water has entered from the back side. I am here with my team to ascertain the facts,” he said.
