"Bakhi Renu temple A temple existed at the low-lying part of the city (of Srinagar). In local dialect it was called Bakhi Renu. It was a site for the grouping of infidels, apostates and corrupt people. Festivities would be held here several times in a year in which singing, dancing and music playing women would participate. People from around that locality ó men, women, young and oldó all used to flock to the temple to enjoy the festivity. Many un-Islamic and corrupt practices would be observed here. In one part of its premises, people grouped and enjoyed drinking alcohol and wine. On hearing the details of these corrupt practices observed in that temple, Shamsuíd-Din Araki took with him a handful of sufis and proceeded to raze the temple to ground. People who came as spectators in the festivity were baton charged and dispersed."
