The PNSC building, which was built in the early 1970s, has seen the second outbreak of a fire in seven months. The 18 Feb fire 'believed to have been caused by a short circuit' destroyed official records of the National Engineering Services of Pakistan. But this was not the first fire the PNSC building would endure. The second fire broke out on 19 August just a few months after the first one.
