Three bunkers removed in Srinagar after 30 years

Srinagar, Dec 11: Three bunkers set up by security force were removed on Tuesday near the city centre Lal Chowk in Srinagar after 30 long years.

The bunkers were built in 1988 to maintain vigil following the outbreak of separatist violence in the Kashmir Valley.

The bunkers were located near Hanuman Mandir on Hari Singh High Street close to Lal Chowk.

Municipal authorities said the bunkers had choked space in the commercial hub of Srinagar.

"We plan to lay a park at the site now," an official said.
