"Many houses and commercial properties here have been damaged due to the shelling from the adversary. Today, I visited those places with a senior administrative officers, saw the situation with my own eyes, and interacted with the people to understand their problems," Sinha told reporters in Tangdhar area of north Kashmir's Kupwara district.
He said the administration has done an assessment of the losses and immediate assistance has been provided to the people.
